Questions and Answers
How quickly should I get my roof inspected after a Detroit windstorm?
We recommend a professional inspection within 48-72 hours after a major wind event. High winds can loosen or dislodge shingles and compromise flashing seals, creating vulnerabilities for water intrusion. An early inspection by our team can identify hidden damage, allowing for minor repairs before leaks or structural issues develop during our next rain.
Why is flashing corrosion such a common problem on Detroit roofs?
Detroit's climate, with its freeze-thaw cycles, road salt aerosol in winter, and industrial history, accelerates metal corrosion. Flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys is especially vulnerable. We combat this by using premium, corrosion-resistant metals like aluminum or copper and ensuring precise installation to eliminate moisture traps, significantly extending the lifespan of these critical seals.
What's the most effective repair for wind-damaged shingles in our area?
The repair depends on the extent of damage. For isolated issues, we perform meticulous shingle replacement, carefully weaving in new, matching architectural shingles to restore integrity and appearance. For widespread damage, a section or full roof replacement with high-wind rated shingles and upgraded fastening systems is often the most durable, long-term solution for Detroit homes.
