Scudder Roofing Company | Roofing Services in Santa Cruz, CA 95060

The salty air along the coast accelerates flashing corrosion. We perform a detailed inspection to identify weak spots, remove corroded materials, and install new, high-grade flashing sealed with marine-grade sealants. This prevents water intrusion at critical joints and valleys, protecting your home's interior from moisture damage.

Look for granule loss in gutters, cracked or curled shingles, and areas of moss or algae growth—common here due to fog and moisture. Sun exposure can also cause brittleness. We recommend annual inspections to catch these issues early, as timely repairs can often extend your roof's life and prevent more costly damage.

For Santa Cruz's mix of sun, salt, and moisture, we often recommend impact-resistant asphalt shingles with algae-resistant coatings or durable metal roofing. Both offer excellent resistance to the elements. During a consultation, we assess your home's specific exposure and structure to recommend the most durable, cost-effective option for you.
