Q&A
My roof is losing granules and looks worn. Is this a common issue in Princeton, and what should I do?
Yes, granule loss is very common in our area due to weather extremes. Those granules protect your shingles from UV rays. Once they're significantly worn, your roof is more vulnerable. We recommend a professional inspection. At S&J Home Improvements, we'll assess the extent of the wear, check for underlying damage, and provide clear options for repair or replacement to prevent leaks.
What causes roof flashing to separate, and how can S&J fix it to prevent leaks?
In Princeton, temperature swings and high winds can cause the sealant on roof flashing to fail, leading to separation at chimneys, vents, and valleys. This is a major leak source. Our repair process involves removing the old, failed material, resealing the area with high-grade, flexible sealants, and properly securing the flashing. For severe cases, we replace the flashing entirely to ensure a watertight seal that lasts.
Can you help with interior damage caused by these common roofing problems?
Absolutely. Leaks from flashing or granule loss can lead to stained ceilings, damaged drywall, and ruined flooring. S&J Home Improvements offers comprehensive repair services. After fixing the roof leak at its source, our painting team can repair and repaint water-damaged interiors, and our flooring experts can assess and replace any compromised flooring, restoring your home's interior completely.
