Sullivan Roofing: Local Roofing Repair Serving Dover 03820

Chimney flashing leaks are a frequent issue here due to our freeze-thaw cycles and harsh weather. We start by removing the old, compromised flashing and thoroughly inspecting the chimney structure and roof deck for water damage. We then install new, custom-fabricated flashing—typically from durable aluminum or copper—using a step-and-counterflashing method that creates a watertight seal. Proper sealing with high-grade roofing cement is critical. Our repair addresses the root cause to prevent a recurring leak, protecting your home's interior from water damage.

After a severe wind event common in our area, we conduct a detailed safety inspection to assess for missing, creased, or lifted shingles and check the integrity of roof edges and ridges. We secure any loose materials immediately to prevent further damage. For repairs, we carefully remove damaged shingles, replace the underlying underlayment if needed, and install new architectural shingles that match your existing roof, ensuring they are properly sealed and nailed to withstand future high winds. We also inspect and reinforce vulnerable areas like eaves and rakes to improve your roof's overall wind resistance.

Local experience matters. As a Dover-based company, we have an intimate understanding of the specific weather patterns, common building styles, and even local building codes that affect your roof. We know which materials perform best against our coastal winds and moisture. When you call us, you get a neighbor who responds quickly to emergencies like storm damage and who will be here in the future to honor our warranties.
