Roof Leak Repair West Linn Oregon
There is not many things more disturbing than a leaking roof. As a home owner, a leak left unchecked or undetected can cause real and substantial damage to your investment. Finding an experianced roof repair company that will take time to track down the leak and fix it right is essential. This week we are repairing a leak on a single story home with an archictecural compositon shingle roof. The leak is showing up between the gutter and the facial board. The home owner has tried many times and had other roofers out to look at the problem with no success. Upon inspection, over the leaking area there are mounts that support a aluminum awning cover. The mounts are not flashed correctly but have been sealed with roof tar. The fix for this problem is to install diverter flashing uphill of each of the eleven awning mounts so that water will go around the mounts. Problem solved in an affordable manner.

Shake roof Clean and treatment Portland Oregon

Cedar shake roofs must be taken care of periodically to keep them working right and looking good. We are out in the Bethany area today finishing up maintenance on a cedar shake roof the we cleaned last week. Today we are replacing damaged shakes that are either cracked or are thin to the point that they are exposing felt paper between the shakes. The main concern in this repair work is to cover the felt paper. The felt paper on these roofs is the water barrier and the shakes must be maintained to protect the felt paper. We also are applying a preservative to the roof that will keep moss and fungi from growing on the roof and keep it looking great for the next 4 plus years.
