Roof Repair in Portland

The major concern with shingle roofs is not always what the eye can see, but rather, what’s going on underneath the shingle. A properly laid roof should lay secure during storms and protect your house against the natural Oregon elements. Over time, you become more vulnerable to problems with leaking or cracked shingles.

If you notice a few loose shingles or a patch that is missing completely, contact one of our experts to repair your asphalt shingles. Never rely on a temporary or quick fix when it comes to something as important as your roof. The extra time and money will be worth it in the end.

Installing cedar shakes is a little more complicated than roofing with architectural composition shingles. The quality of the finished roof depends on the experience of the contractor, as well as the caliber of the shakes used. The most popular cedar shakes in Portland are referred to as “blue label number 1”. This is a mixed-bag of shakes, which means problems start to show up soon after your home was constructed.

After repairing roofs in Portland for over 38 years, we have seen it all. Every home is unique, but we recommend thorough maintenance every 5 years for your shake roof.

Tile roof repair services are similar to shingle repair because of the potential for standing water on your roof. In Portland, our homes are exposed to a wet atmosphere at certain points during the year. If your tiles are not properly maintained, the damp air can encourage moss to grow throughout your roof. One cracked or missing tile can create a much bigger problem for your safety and your wallet.

Rain, snow, and ice can seep under neglected tiles, making them brittle and prone to breaking. To make sure this doesn’t happen to you, contact an expert to repair your tile roof if you notice any cracks or missing tiles — especially after a storm.
