Roof Repairs

Roofs don’t last forever. If you have a damaged roof, then eventually it is going to start causing all sorts of issues with your home unless regular maintenance & repairs are performed. Luckily, most roof repair issues can be dealt with rather easily when hiring the right roofing contractor in your area. This is assuming that you catch any problems early and repair the problem right away.

If you need roof repairs in Calgary, then our team is standing by to help you out. Let’s go over the importance of roof repairs, and some of the more common types of damage that you may encounter.

Why Roof Repairs Are Important

Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home. It isn’t just something that looks pretty. It serves a very important purpose.

A roof helps to keep the elements out. It stops wind and rain from getting into your home and a damaged roof could very quickly lead to leaks, mold, and even severe structural damage.

Damaged roofs are poor insulators too. If the roof is damaged, then you may notice that your heating bill could increase. This is because hot air is going to be able to escape from your property much quicker.

Even a single missing tile can quickly lead to serious problems with a roof. It only takes one missing tile for water to start creeping into your home and the structure to be compromised. If even a single missing tile isn’t replaced quickly, then you could be looking at a huge roof and home repair bill.

Common Types Of Roof Damage

There are all sorts of roof damage issues. Some of them can be easy to spot, others not so much. All are problems that need to be dealt with quickly and right the first time.

Missing Or Damaged Tiles

This is probably one of the most common roof repair issues. Roof tiles can wear down over time and can crack or fall off during storms.

As mentioned previously, even a single missing or damaged tile left unrepaired can quickly lead to problems. If the issue is not fixed ASAP, the damage and costs will increase daily.

Sagging Roof

A sagging or bowed roof is often an indicator that water has managed to get inside of your home.

Sagging roofs normally occur because the wooden beams that support your roof have started to become saturated. They may even have started to rot.

Once your roof gets to this point it becomes more difficult, but not impossible, to fix. Sagging roofs need to be inspected by a reputable company to ensure the safety of the people inside.

Roof Structure Damage

Roof structure can cover rotten or broken roof beams, serious amounts of missing or damaged tiles, or torn roofing felt.

This is a problem that often occurs when other repair issues have been left unchecked. Again, they are difficult to deal with, but not impossible when you have the right team of roof repair contractors working with you.

Leaking

If you have started to notice wet spots in your property, particularly mold or dampness on the walls, then this could potentially indicate that the roof is letting water in. This may be due to damaged tiles, or it may be because the roof is not allowing water to flow freely off into the guttering.

If this happens, then severe structural damage to your roof could be just around the corner and it requires immediate attention.

Types Of Roof Repair Jobs

Roof repair jobs can vary from quick tile replacements to complete roof replacement. Of course, the sooner you get roofing issues dealt with, the less work will need to be carried out.

When our team at Kymand Roofing carries out roof repair jobs, we will always inspect the roof beforehand to know the sort of work that will need to be completed.

Tile Replacement

Tile replacement is used in the case of damaged or broken roofing tiles.

Of course, your roof could be made of any number of different roofing materials. When we replace a tile, we will always try to ensure that we replace it like-for-like. This means that the tile replacement will not ruin the aesthetics of your property.

Roof Valley Repair

If you have leakage issues in your home, then there is a chance that your roof may not be draining water correctly.

In many cases, this can be due to a damaged roof valley. This is the small trough that sits between the two slopes of your roof.

A repair job of this type will often involve the roof valley being cleaned out, or perhaps being recemented to help counter any natural wear and tear.

Roof Structure Replacement

Roof structure replacement will normally involve the replacement of one or more roof beams. This normally happens when you have a sagging roof.

At the same time, any damaged tiles, roofing felt, or insulation material may also be replaced.

How Our Roof Repairs Work

No roofing repair job is ever the same. This means that it is tough to say exactly how your roofing repair job will be done unless one of our trained inspectors can visit the job site and create and action plan.

Roof Inspection

Any roofing repair job will always begin with a roof inspection. The purpose of this inspection is to ascertain the damage and often includes the entire roof. Remember, damage that may look rather easy to fix on the outside (e.g. a missing tile) could have ended up causing untold damage to the structure on the inside.

When our team has worked out the extent of the damage to your roof, we will then be able to provide you with more information on the type of roof repair that will be required. At Kymand Roofing, we will also be able to provide detailed cost estimates and an action plan. We also offer financing for customers requiring unexpected, larger repairs.

Roof Repair

What happens at this point will vary based upon the type of repair that needs to be carried out. Some jobs may take a few hours (replacing a missing tile), while others could take several days (replacing a whole roof).

What we can promise you, however, is that your roof repair will always be handled by some of the best roofers in Calgary. This means that no matter the size of job, it will always be completed to a high standard that we hold here at Kymand Roofing.

Clean-Up

Once your residential roof repair is completed, we will clean everything up for you. No matter the size of the job, we will ensure that there is no debris left in sight (especially nails). The only thing you will be left with is a fully repaired roof, ready to protect both you and your home from the elements. All waste material will be disposed of appropriately and recycled if possible.
