Xport Roofing | Roofing Services in Newport News, VA 23608

In our area, skylight leaks are often caused by failed flashing seals due to temperature fluctuations and storm exposure. At Xport Roofing, we start with a thorough inspection to identify cracks or gaps. Our repair involves carefully removing the old sealant, installing new, weather-resistant flashing, and applying a high-grade waterproof sealant designed for Virginia's humid climate to ensure a long-lasting fix.

Some granule loss is normal when a roof is new, but excessive loss, especially in older roofs, is a common concern here due to our intense sun and occasional severe storms. It can signal advanced wear, leaving shingles vulnerable. We recommend a professional assessment. Xport Roofing can evaluate if it's surface aging or if compromised underlayment requires repair or partial replacement to prevent leaks and extend your roof's life.

Proactive maintenance is key. We advise bi-annual inspections, especially after storm season, to check skylight seals and for granule accumulation in gutters. Keeping gutters clean prevents water backup, and trimming overhanging branches reduces debris damage. For a personalized prevention plan, Xport Roofing offers maintenance checks to catch small issues like worn sealant or early granule loss before they become major, costly repairs for your home.
