Frequently Asked Questions
I'm seeing black granules in my gutters in Des Moines. Is this serious and can you fix it?
Yes, that's granule loss, a common issue here due to weather exposure. Those granules protect your roof's asphalt shingles from UV rays. Significant loss can lead to premature aging and leaks. We can assess the extent of the damage, perform targeted repairs, and often apply protective sealants to vulnerable areas, helping to prevent further deterioration and water damage to your home.
Can you repair damaged roof ridge caps, and how does that help my Des Moines home?
Absolutely. Ridge caps seal the peak of your roof, and damage is common after our high winds. Compromised ridge caps are a major entry point for wind-driven rain and can cause attic ventilation issues. Our repair service involves carefully removing damaged sections, replacing them with new, properly sealed caps, and ensuring a tight fit. This restores your roof's critical defense against Pacific Northwest moisture and helps regulate attic temperature.
If my roof leak has caused interior damage, like to drywall or floors, can you handle all the repairs?
Yes, that's where our full-service expertise shines. We start by fixing the roof leak at its source. Then, our team can seamlessly handle the resulting interior repairs—including water-damaged drywall replacement, repainting, and repairing or replacing affected flooring or tiles. This comprehensive approach saves you time and coordination hassle, ensuring your Des Moines home is fully restored inside and out with a single, reliable call.
