Common Questions
Why is roof decking rot such a common problem for Mobile homes, and how can you fix it?
Our high humidity and frequent storms trap moisture under shingles, leading to wood rot in the roof decking. We fix this by removing the damaged sections, treating the surrounding area to prevent mold, and installing new, pressure-treated decking. Proper attic ventilation is also crucial, which we assess and correct to protect your home long-term.
What causes roof flashing to corrode quickly here, and what's the best replacement material?
Salt air from the Gulf and acidic rain accelerate flashing corrosion, which can lead to leaks around chimneys and vents. We remove the corroded metal and typically install galvanized steel or aluminum flashing, which offer superior corrosion resistance for our environment. For a longer-lasting solution on critical areas, we often recommend and install copper flashing.
Can a new paved driveway or parking lot help protect my property's foundation from water damage?
Absolutely. Properly graded and installed paving directs rainwater away from your foundation, which is vital in our rainy climate. We assess your property's slope, install durable asphalt or concrete with effective drainage, and can integrate solutions like French drains or channel drains to manage runoff, reducing the risk of basement flooding and soil erosion around your home.
