Springfield, VA is a suburb of Washington, D.C. that was founded as a stop on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad. It is now a thriving center with beautiful homes in family oriented neighborhoods. Home owners in the area are accustomed to the hazards that go hand in hand with living in the weather conditions specific to Northern Virginia. Rain, snow, wind and UV rays are very hard on the exterior of a house, the roof in particular.
The roof is the most important part of the home for its waterproofing effects. A leak can cause tremendous and widespread damage to the house in a short period of time. Unfortunately, you may not even know you have a leak until weeks or months after it started. If you want to avoid the expense of getting a new roof, don’t ignore any sign your roof has sprung a leak. As a roofer in Springfield we are well aware of the signs that you roof is failing to keep your house dry and you may be next in line for a roof replacement.
Discovering water pouring through your ceiling is a sure indication that a lot of water has been getting through the attic for a while. You have a serious problem if you need to run for buckets during a rainstorm. We will respond to an emergency call any time of the day or night to save your carpet and furnishings, but once the storm is over we need to thoroughly assess your home.
The most common problem with a roof is corroded or damaged flashing that would normally act as the protective shield over seams between sections of the roof, and around vent pipes, chimneys and skylights. If the flashing has failed badly, your shingles will be damaged to the point you need a new roof.
Missing or curled up shingles everywhere on the roof means there is a lot of water damage going on inside the house. If we can solve the problem with small roof repairs you may be able to extend the life of your current roof. Call us for a free inspection today before a minor water leak becomes a major issue.
