Rivera Roofing and Contracting | Roofing Services in Rochester, NY 14626

In Rochester, ridge cap damage is often caused by our intense winter ice dams and strong seasonal winds, which can loosen or break the seals. Our expert repair process involves a thorough inspection to assess the full extent of the damage. We then carefully remove the compromised ridge caps, replace any underlying damaged materials, and install new, high-quality caps with superior sealants. This not only stops leaks but also restores your roof's critical ventilation function, protecting your home from future Rochester weather.

We use a professional, low-pressure soft washing technique specifically for Rochester's common roof algae. This method applies a biodegradable cleaning solution that kills the algae at its root without the harsh scrubbing or high pressure that can strip protective roof granules. The treatment is effective and safe for asphalt shingles, and we take care to protect your landscaping. This not only restores your home's appearance but also prevents the organic growth from compromising your shingles' lifespan.

Prompt attention is crucial here because our climate accelerates problems. A damaged ridge cap can quickly lead to interior water damage during our heavy snow melts and spring rains. Similarly, algae stains aren't just cosmetic; the organism retains moisture against the shingles, which can lead to premature granule loss and deterioration, especially during freeze-thaw cycles. By addressing these issues early, we help you avoid more extensive and expensive repairs down the line, ensuring your roof is prepared for our next Rochester winter.
