Stephen Ferrell Roofing | Roofing Services in Tallahassee, FL 32301

Our detailed roof inspection specifically checks for the wear and tear common in our area. We meticulously examine all flashing points—around chimneys, vents, and valleys—for early signs of corrosion, and we assess the condition of your ridge caps for cracking or wind damage. Catching these issues early during an inspection allows us to recommend targeted repairs before they lead to costly water intrusion inside your home.

In many cases, corroded flashing can be repaired. Our approach is to save you money where possible. We'll carefully remove the damaged section, treat the surrounding area to prevent spread, and install a new, matching piece of flashing, sealed properly to the existing roof. However, if the corrosion is widespread or the underlying decking is compromised, we'll provide an honest assessment and recommend a full replacement to ensure a lasting, watertight seal.

Tallahassee's combination of strong sun, high humidity, and occasional severe weather can cause ridge cap shingles to dry out, crack, or become loose. Our repair process involves removing the damaged caps, inspecting the underlying ridge board for any issues, and installing new, high-quality ridge cap shingles. We use proper nailing techniques and sealant to ensure they are wind-resistant and provide a secure, finished look that protects the peak of your roof.
