Frequently Asked Questions
What causes roof ridge cap damage and flashing separation in Wilmington homes?
In our area, these issues are commonly caused by high winds during storms, thermal expansion and contraction from temperature swings, and general wear over time. Damaged ridge caps can compromise your roof's peak seal, while separated flashing around chimneys or vents is a primary cause of leaks. A professional inspection can identify the specific cause and the best repair method.
How do you repair a damaged roof ridge cap?
Our repair process starts with removing the damaged shingles or caps along the roof ridge. We then inspect the underlying decking for any water damage. After preparing the area, we install new, high-quality ridge caps using proper sealing techniques and fasteners designed to withstand Wilmington's weather, ensuring a watertight and durable seal along the roof's peak.
Is flashing repair a temporary fix, or will it last?
When done correctly, flashing repair is a permanent solution. We don't just re-seal old, compromised flashing. We assess the separation, often removing the old material to install new, corrosion-resistant flashing that's properly integrated with your roof shingles and underlying waterproofing layers. This correct installation prevents future separation and protects vulnerable roof intersections for years to come.
