Q&A
Why do I often get a roof leak after the snow melts in Bellwood?
This is a common issue in our area. Melting snow can expose pre-existing damage or weaknesses, like compromised shingles or failed seals around vents and chimneys, that were hidden under ice. The freeze-thaw cycle also puts stress on roofing materials, leading to cracks. We provide thorough inspections to pinpoint these vulnerabilities and offer repairs or replacements using materials suited for Pennsylvania's climate.
What causes roof flashing to separate, and how do you fix it?
Roof flashing—the metal strips sealing joints on your roof—can separate due to weather expansion/contraction, improper installation, or age. In Bellwood's winters, ice dams can particularly pry it loose. Our repair process involves removing the old flashing, inspecting the underlying structure for water damage, and installing new, high-quality flashing with proper sealing to create a watertight, durable barrier at valleys, chimneys, and skylights.
As a general contractor, can you handle related interior damage from a roof leak, like flooring?
Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor, we not only repair the roof but also address any resulting interior damage. This often includes water-damaged flooring. We can remove ruined materials, ensure the subfloor is completely dry and structurally sound, and install new flooring that matches your home. Handling both the exterior cause and interior effect ensures a complete, seamless repair for your Bellwood home.
