Frequently Asked Questions
What causes roof flashing to rust so quickly in Altoona, and how can Spartan Roofing fix it?
Altoona's humidity and precipitation create the perfect environment for galvanized steel flashing to rust prematurely. We fix this by first removing the damaged flashing, then installing new, high-quality aluminum or copper flashing. These materials are far more resistant to our local climate. We ensure a watertight seal with proper installation techniques to prevent future leaks and structural damage.
Can you remove the black algae stains on my roof without damaging the shingles?
Absolutely. We use a professional, low-pressure cleaning solution specifically formulated to kill the roof algae (Gloeocapsa magma) common in our area. This safe, effective process removes the stains without the high pressure that can damage shingle granules. We can also apply a preventative zinc or copper strip treatment to inhibit future growth.
As an Altoona homeowner, what's the best way to prevent these common roofing issues?
The best defense is a proactive roof maintenance plan. We recommend an annual inspection, especially before winter. We'll check for early signs of flashing corrosion, clear debris from valleys, and assess algae growth. Catching small problems early with Spartan Roofing can prevent costly repairs from water intrusion and extend the life of your Altoona roof significantly.
