Shisslak John J Roofing | Roofing Services in Bethlehem, PA 18020

In our Bethlehem area, the most frequent cause is ice dam damage. When snow melts and refreezes at the roof's edge, it creates a dam that traps water underneath the shingles. This water can then seep into the decking and attic, causing leaks. Our inspections specifically look for compromised seals, damaged flashing in valleys and around chimneys, and weakened underlayment—all prime spots for ice dam-related leaks to start.

We recommend a professional inspection as soon as it's safe to do so after a storm. Even minor wind damage, like a few lifted or missing shingles, can quickly lead to more serious problems like water infiltration and interior damage, especially with our frequent Bethlehem rains. Addressing it promptly prevents a small, affordable repair from turning into a major issue. We offer timely storm damage assessments to give you a clear picture of what's needed.

Our repair process starts with a comprehensive, local inspection to identify all damage points, not just the obvious ones. For wind damage, we secure the area and replace shingles using matching materials, paying special attention to the sealing and nailing patterns to prevent future uplift. For leaks, we trace the water path to its source, often needing to replace damaged decking and underlayment before reinstalling shingles and critical flashings. Our goal is a repair that blends seamlessly with your existing roof and is built to last through future Bethlehem weather.
