Roofing Pros | Roofing Services in Bangor, ME 04401

In Bangor, skylight leaks are frequently caused by a breakdown of the flashing sealant due to extreme temperature swings and heavy snow loads. Water can seep into the roof deck around the unit. Our repair process involves a careful inspection, removal of the old, failed sealant and flashing, and installation of new, ice-and-water shield compatible materials. We ensure a watertight seal that's built to withstand our local weather, preventing future interior water damage.

Nail pops are a very common issue here, caused by the natural expansion and contraction of roof decking during Maine's freeze-thaw cycles. This movement pushes the fasteners up. While a few might be cosmetic, they can compromise your roof's seal, leading to potential leaks and moisture intrusion into your attic. We recommend addressing them promptly. Our fix involves safely removing the popped nail, sealing the old hole with roofing cement, and securing the shingle with a new nail in the proper location, followed by a fresh sealant application.

After winter, it's wise to do a visual check (safely from the ground) for missing or damaged shingles, especially around valleys and chimneys. Look for signs of ice dam damage along the eaves. In your attic, check for daylight coming through the roof boards, moisture stains, or mold, which indicate leaks. Most importantly, schedule a professional inspection with us. We'll identify subtle issues like compromised flashing or early-stage nail pops that you might miss, ensuring small problems are fixed before they become major, costly repairs.
