Protego Restoration | General Contractors & Roofing in Houston, TX 77002

Curling shingles, a common issue in Houston's heat, often appear as edges that are cupped upward or clawed downward. During our detailed roof inspection, we look for this specific wear pattern, which compromises your roof's ability to shed water and can lead to leaks. We'll assess the extent of the curling and recommend targeted repairs or a section replacement to restore integrity before major damage occurs.

It depends on the damage. Roof valleys are critical drainage channels, and Houston's heavy rains make them prone to leaks. We first inspect the valley flashing and surrounding shingles. Often, a precise repair of the flashing or a partial re-shingling of the valley is sufficient. If the underlying decking is rotted or the damage is widespread, a more comprehensive valley replacement may be necessary. We always recommend the most cost-effective, long-term solution.

Properly functioning gutters are your first line of defense. In our area, clogged or damaged gutters cause water to back up under the roof edge and into the fascia, which can accelerate shingle deterioration (like curling) and overwhelm roof valleys. Our gutter installation, cleaning, and repair services ensure water is channeled safely away from your roof and foundation, directly addressing a key cause of the local roofing issues we see every day.
