Common Roof Repairs

There are many reasons why your roof is leaking and you’ll need to call for emergency roof repair. Just because a roof leak appears in one location inside of the structure, doesn’t mean it came from that location. Water seeks its own level, so if a leak occurs at the top of the roof, it could run down the interior of the structure unexposed long before it shows itself as a puddle on your floor.

That’s why at Baltic Exteriors, we use handheld infrared scanning devices to help find hidden moisture damage that lays under roofing materials, covered from the naked eye. With the right tools, technology, and roofing contractor experience, you can be sure Baltic Exteriors is going to solve your roofing problems quickly, efficiently, and affordably.

signs that Roof repair is needed

When you have any roofing problems or a leaking roof, these common roofing problems may be the culprit:

Damaged pipe flanges
Improperly installed ridge vents
Storm damage
Clogged/damaged gutters
Exposed roofing nails
Step flashings on walls
Skylight flashing leaks
Standing snow
High winds
Built up leaf debris

outdoor roof inspections

Roof inspections from the outside are simple, as long as you have a good unobstructed viewing point on the rooftop. The following checklist of warning signs will help you spot any potential problems during an outside roof repair inspection report.

Blistered, curled, or split shingles
Loose or missing shingles or tiles
Loose nails
Exposed nails (can lead to a leaking roof)
Dark patches on asphalt shingles and/or large amounts of granules in the rain gutters (granular coating is wearing away)
Sagging on the ridges or in the center of the roof
Broken or loose shingles at the ridgelines and hip lines
Rusty or corroded metal (flashing) and loose shingles in the valleys, plumbing vents, or near chimneys (it may be necessary to remove excess debris and leaves to inspect thoroughly)
Rusty metal or loose shingles where vertical sides of the house meet the roof
Overflowing gutters or excess water pooling near the foundation of the house
Blisters, depressions near vent pipes, separations in flashing, and clogged drains on flat roofs (pop blisters with a knife and coat them with roofing cement to prevent further damage; depressions can also be filled with roofing cement)

indoor roof inspections

The following checklist includes all the problem warning signs we look for during an indoor roof inspection:

Sagging decking between the rafters (if the decking is sagging or deteriorating, the decking will also need to be replaced during a roof replacement
Outside light seen through the roof (this may not be a problem on shake roofs since they tend to swell and prevent leaks during the wet months)
Signs of leaking in the attic (dark spots in the wood, especially around vents, chimneys, and other holes to the roof)
If dark spots are still wet or soft they are a current problem, if dry and hard it is most likely an old problem that has been fixed
Signs of water damage or leaking (usually in the form of water stains, or sagging ceilings due to an active leak or condensation from poor roof ventilation)

Written Roof Inspection Report

Once a Baltic Exteriors professional roofer has completed a roof inspection, we will put a report together in writing with detailed explanations of the necessary roof repairs and recommendations for your existing or future roof. Digital photos of the entire roof and trouble areas can also be included for additional fees. This type of roof inspection report will be emailed to you or mailed by postal service a few days later.

No matter what the reason is for your request of a roof inspection report – we will advise you on the best solution so you can eliminate high future expenses for a small inspection fee.
