Call with the one problem
Tell us the address and what you are seeing: a stain, a drip, shingles in the yard, a seam on a flat roof.
Look before any price
The slope and the details that fail, then the attic where there is one.
A written quote for that job
The repair in plain language, priced on its own, plus a straight answer on how long anything else can wait.
The work, then the walkaround
Shingles woven in, metal renewed, photographs before and after. We walk it with you before the final payment, and you keep the photographs.
What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
- Look in the attic if you safely canWater tracks on the rafters, damp insulation or daylight around a vent point straight at the entry, and a found entry point is a cheaper repair.

Call (351) 444-1601Note 01Will you come out at night?
For an active leak, where light and weather let the roof be worked safely. A steep or high roof in wind or ice after dark sometimes cannot be, and we will say so; the water is managed inside and the cover goes on at first light.
Note 02Is an ice dam an emergency?
When water is coming through a ceiling, yes. The cover deals with tonight, and the dam is opened so the meltwater can drain. The cause at the eaves is the repair to plan once the weather allows.
Note 03Can I fix a leaking roof from the inside?
You can manage it from the inside: a bucket, a tarp over belongings, and a small hole in a bulging ceiling to let trapped water drain into the bucket, if you can do it safely. The repair itself has to be made on the roof, where the water gets in.
