Those black granules are a protective coating from your asphalt shingles. In Bristol, factors like temperature swings, hail, and aging can accelerate granule loss, which exposes the shingle mat to sun and moisture. If you're seeing a significant amount, it's a sign your roof's lifespan is shortening. We recommend a professional inspection to assess the extent of the wear and discuss repair or replacement options to prevent leaks.

In Bristol, flashing lift is often caused by repeated freeze-thaw cycles and high winds. The metal expands and contracts, breaking the sealant, and strong gusts can physically pry it loose. This is critical because flashing seals roof joints around chimneys, vents, and valleys. A compromised seal here is a direct path for water into your home. T&T Construction specializes in resealing or replacing damaged flashing with methods and materials suited for our local climate.

It depends on the severity. For isolated granule loss or a single section of lifted flashing, targeted repairs are often a cost-effective solution that extends your roof's life. However, widespread granule loss across the roof deck or multiple failed flashings can indicate systemic aging. Our thorough inspection will give you a clear, honest assessment. We'll only recommend a full replacement if it's necessary to ensure your Bristol home stays completely protected.
