Van Opdurp Roofing | Roof Repair & Leak Solutions in Brasher Falls, NY

In our area, heavy snow, ice dams, and wind-driven rain put immense pressure on roof valleys, which are critical drainage points. Leaks often start from worn flashing, improper sealing, or debris buildup. We fix them by first clearing the area, then repairing or replacing the metal flashing with a proper ice and water shield underlayment, and finally resealing with high-grade roofing cement to create a watertight, durable seal that handles our local weather.

While some granule loss is normal over time, excessive loss—especially on newer roofs—is a common sign of storm damage or manufacturing defects common in our region. It leaves the asphalt exposed to UV rays, leading to cracks and leaks. We'll inspect to determine the cause. Often, localized repairs or a section replacement can solve it, but if the damage is widespread, we'll discuss your options to prevent further deterioration and protect your home.

Our inspection is thorough and tailored to local risks. We start with a ground-level assessment of your roof's condition, looking for sagging valleys, missing granules, and damaged shingles. Then, we safely examine the roof surface, flashing, vents, and chimneys. We also check your attic for moisture, ventilation issues, and ice dam evidence. You'll get a detailed, honest report with photos and clear recommendations, whether it's a simple repair or a more involved solution, so you can make an informed decision.
