RAF Construction: Trusted Roofing Repair Serving Colorado Springs, CO 80909

In many cases, hail-dented flashing can be expertly repaired by our team. We'll assess the damage to the specific area—like around chimneys or vents—to see if it can be straightened and sealed properly. However, if the metal is severely compromised or has developed hairline cracks, a replacement of that flashing section is necessary to prevent water intrusion. We prioritize preserving undamaged parts of your roof while ensuring a watertight seal.

A roof replacement with RAF Construction includes installing a new, reinforced ridge vent system designed for high winds and hail. We use premium ridge cap shingles, secure them with extra nails per manufacturer specs, and apply high-grade sealant. This process specifically targets the vulnerable ridge line, creating a stronger barrier against the uplift and impact it frequently faces in our local storms, which helps prevent the cracking and loosening we often see.

Reroofing allows us to install a completely new, integrated roofing system. We remove the old ridge caps and any compromised flashing, then install new, code-compliant flashing with proper step-weaving into the new shingle layers. The new ridge vent and caps are installed as one cohesive unit, eliminating the weak points between old and new materials. This comprehensive approach is one of the most effective ways to solve these interconnected, common local problems for the long term.
