Signs include finding an excessive amount of granules in your gutters or at the end of downspouts, or noticing dark, blotchy patches on your roof where the colored coating has worn away. This is a common issue here due to sun exposure and storms. Granules protect the asphalt shingle from UV rays, so their loss accelerates aging and can lead to leaks. We can assess the extent of the loss and recommend repair or replacement to prevent further damage.

Flashing failure around chimneys, vents, and valleys is a leading cause of leaks in Chattanooga homes. Our repair process involves carefully removing the compromised flashing, inspecting the underlying deck for water damage or rot, and installing new, high-quality metal flashing sealed with professional-grade waterproofing materials. We ensure it's properly integrated with your existing shingles to create a watertight barrier that withstands our heavy rains and wind.

Don't wait for a leak! We recommend a professional inspection if you notice granules in gutters, see cracked or curling shingles, spot any rust or gaps in flashing, or after any major storm with hail or high winds. Proactive inspections allow us to catch and fix small issues like early granule loss or minor flashing separations before they turn into costly interior water damage. It's the best way to protect your investment.
