Roof Repairs

When it comes to a damaged roof, the first thing homeowners think of is: should I repair that leaks or replace the roof? The answer to this fundamental question will come from a professional roofer inspection. Next, you’ll see the steps you should follow to find the correct answer.

Leaky roofs are not a strange thing in Memphis and Mississippi’s Northern areas. These zones constantly receive the hits of strong storms and winds. Thus, local homeowners tend to fall into a panic when they detect leaks in their roofs. They know that a little roof leak may become a major problem if it is not timely and properly managed.

Questions like these arise:

How much damage my roof can have?

Will, it put at risk my roofing system and insulation?

What kind of future damage this roof leak may cause?

And not less important; how much a repairing or roofing replacement could cost?

At Kreunen Construction, we have a principle. Every roof leak is potentially harmful to your roof, so it is important to repair it promptly.

However, some homeowners skip roofing maintenance and leak repairs only to find out during the next rain that they have a roof leak. So, carrying out periodic checks on your roof will mean a lot of money saved in the future.

Moreover, temperature changes, strong winds, rain, and the summer sun have harmful effects on roofs. These elements are the causes of roofing materials wear. Therefore, if you have a damaged roof, you should fix it right away.

In most cases, roof leaks are the reason for water or moisture stains spreading through ceilings or walls. Before long, small leaks lead to big problems such as rotten molds, frames and siding, and damaged insulation. Thus, if you pay attention to roof leaks timely, you will avoid future expensive repairs.

Following, we’ll point out a pair of factors that make houses more prone to have roof leaks:

  • The chimney in your roof: homes with fireplaces tend to present more roof leaks. Water can seep through the chimney. Besides, the external structure of these tends to retain water, later causing leaks. So, you should ask a professional roofer to inspect your roof periodically.
  • Your house’s attic: a not adequately ventilated attic will produce roof leaks. This is an area where water can freeze. Later, when the attic gets warm enough it will cause meltwater to form and pool all over the roof. Then, if your roof is leaking, maybe your attic has been leaking for some time.

At Kreunen Construction, we know the importance of a roofing system in good conditions for your family. That’s why we focus on you to have cleared what is the situation of your roof and help you on how to repair the leaks. 

Next, we’ll show you the previous steps we follow before starting your roofing repair.
