It depends on the extent of the damage. Often, skylight leaks are due to failed flashing or sealants, which we can expertly repair. However, if the leak has gone undetected and caused significant roof deck rot in the surrounding area, a section replacement or full roof replacement may be necessary to ensure your home's structure is sound. We provide a thorough, honest inspection to recommend the most effective and cost-efficient solution for your Kirkwood home.

Signs include sagging roof planes, spongy feeling underfoot in the attic, water stains on ceilings, or a musty odor. During a roof replacement for Kirkwood area homes, we conduct a full deck inspection. Any rotted or compromised wood is completely removed and replaced with new, sturdy decking. This crucial step, often missed by less thorough contractors, ensures your new roof has a solid foundation, preventing future problems and maximizing the lifespan of your investment.

For our climate, we recommend high-quality architectural asphalt shingles with strong wind resistance, paired with premium synthetic underlayment for an added moisture barrier. For areas around skylights, chimneys, and valleys—common leak sources—we use best-practice flashing techniques and materials. We can also discuss impact-resistant options or proper ventilation systems during your new roof consultation to create a system specifically designed to protect against Kirkwood's weather patterns.
