Annapolis Roof Repair

This question can only really be answered after we’ve had the chance to inspect your roof. This is because the answer depends on a number of different factors, such as the extent of the damage, the age of the existing roof, the location of the damage, etc.

If your roof is more than 30 years old and has been damaged, repairing it might be too much of a short-term solution. New problems will likely emerge after the repairs are made, costing you more money in the long run. But if your roof is relatively new and has been damaged by a storm or some other event, repairs are often more simple and are the preferred option.

Once again, there are a few factors to consider. For example, how many roofs do you currently have?

Maryland code allows you to place up to two (2) layers of shingles on top of each other. So, if you’ve already had your roof replaced at some point, chances are both will need to be removed before a new one can be installed. This will require more labor and will be a more expensive job.

If there’s just one layer on there, we may be able to just add another one on top, which is less labor and material intensive and will save you money.

Whether or not this is possible, however, will depend on the state of the existing roof. If the damage consists of just some broken shingles, we might not need to do a full replacement. But if the issues are structural, then we’ll have to get to the bottom of things, which is a bigger job.

The best thing to do if you’re worried about cost is to get in touch for a free estimate. Let one of our professionals come out to do an inspection and inform you of your options. Then, you can choose which one is right for you.

If the only issue you have with your roof is that it’s leaking, you may be thinking you can just handle this job yourself, saving you some money.

However, we really recommend against this.

While roof leak repairs look simple, they often are not. You may think the issue is centered around where the water is actually leaking into your home, but chances are there are more things at play.

In most cases, the water will be saturated in your roof frame and is just leaking in one spot. Depending on how long the leak has been going on, this could have caused some serious structural damage or mold, both of which will only get more serious over time.

If you need a roof leak repaired, call a professional roofing company. We’ll come out and help you determine the exact nature of the problem and will recommend the best solution. If it really is just a simple leak, great. But if it’s not, it’s best to have someone who knows what they’re doing to prevent any future disasters.

If you have a historic home that you’d like to try and preserve, but the roof is damaged, you may be more interested in roof restoration. The main difference between roof restoration and traditional roof repair is that we try to maintain the same look of the old roof, which usually means using the same materials and construction methods.

In the end, the answer to this question is “usually not.” But what we can do will depend on the specific nature of your project. We won’t do anything that isn’t up to code or that puts your home in long-term jeopardy. But if we can safely and correctly restore your roof, we’re happy to get it done for you.
