Any roof, even the strongest, best-kept ones, might need repairs every once in a while. Here are some of the most common types of roof repairs completed by an established Fort Collins roofing company:
- Roof leaks – these issues can be caused by many things, from damaged or ripped-off roof covering materials to cracked or detached flashing. A leak can take many forms, from droplets accumulating on the surfaces under the roof to the appearance of mold in your rooms to damp patches on the ceiling or even water pouring in your rooms;
- Gutter damage – the drainage system that surrounds your roof is an important part of your roofing system and also a frequent cause of roof damage. The most common gutter issues are clogging and sagging, both problems being quite easy to correct, but that can lead to severe water damage if neglected;
- Shrinkage – when roofing materials are exposed to extreme heat, they expand, while cold temperatures cause materials to shrink. When your roof is exposed to rapidly changing temperatures, they might shrink for good, becoming very brittle and exposing the deeper layers of the roofing structure to the elements. The best solution is usually the replacement of the affected components.
