Frequently asked questions
What are the signs my roof has problems?
Perhaps the most common question we get (and any roofing company for that matter), is the question about knowing when a home’s roof has issues.
The simple answer is that the signs are obvious, the complicated answer is that the roof issues signs aren’t so obvious.
At first glance, you can see common roofing issues such as:
Missing shingles
Water stains inside of the home
Exposed roof components that look out of place.
However, there are also times where you might not see apparent roof issues such as rotting plywood, pipe collar cracks, or leaks. In this case, you have options, which lead to our next question.
I have a roof leak, what do I do?
Perhaps you do your springtime maintenance and notice a few missing shingles or one morning you wake up and the bathroom ceiling has a leak stain.
In the case of a roofing leak, you have options. Sometimes people ask if they need a new roof because of a leak, and the answer is always it depends.
Factors such as the age of your current roof, the current warranty (if there is one), and the scop of your roof leak will ultimately determine the next steps. In either case, the first step is to always get the issue inspected by a roofing company… an honest roofing company.
Depending on the damage on your roof causing the leak – a few missing shingles or a serious problem – will then determine your appropriate actions:
Sometimes a simple roof repair is an answer

Praise the Lord for me to have the contractor whose name is Sammy to work through step by step on the insurance claim and the roof replacement in the past 7 months. He suggested what is the right way to do. He is always there to give encouragement and support. He has done great job showing what the professional is. Now it's raining so hard. It's my blessing to have him finish the job right before the big rain. Upon facing the difficulty of roof damage, we do need the professional like Sammy to get what we need over the claim.
