Recon Exteriors | Roofing Services in Franklin, MA 02038

Ice dams form when heat escapes from your attic, melting snow that refreezes at the eaves. In Franklin, this is a common cause of roof leaks and damage. Our prevention strategy includes a thorough roof inspection to identify heat loss points, followed by improving attic insulation and ventilation. We also perform professional gutter cleaning and installation to ensure proper water drainage away from your roof's edge, which is critical in preventing ice dam formation and protecting your home's structure.

Not always. Moss can trap moisture and damage shingles over time, but early intervention can often save your roof. We start with a professional roof cleaning to safely remove the moss without damaging your shingles. Following this, a detailed roof inspection will assess the underlying condition. Many times, targeted roof repair is sufficient. However, if the moss has caused widespread rot or leaks, we may recommend a roof replacement or re-roofing. Our goal is to provide the most effective and long-lasting solution for your Franklin home.

Absolutely. Properly installed and maintained gutters are your first line of defense against water damage from ice dams and heavy rain, directing water safely away from your foundation and siding. For siding, modern materials offer superior protection against moisture and the freeze-thaw cycles we experience in Franklin. Whether it's siding installation, repair, or replacement, we use durable products that resist moisture infiltration, which helps prevent the conditions that lead to moss growth and structural rot inside your walls.
