Austin Roof Repair Facts: When to Consider Re-Roofing

Leaks
A leak, of course, is the most obvious clue that your roof needs some attention. Leaks can be caused by a variety of reasons, including ice dams, shingle blow-off or improperly installed or deteriorated flashing. Tree limbs rubbing against your shingles can create a leak, as can old caulking around vent pipes that penetrate the roof. The faster you take care of roof repair, the better. In Austin, roof repair is especially important because our heat and humidity can promote the growth of mold and mildew.

Don’t just look for a drip coming from the ceiling, though. Signs of moisture also include discolored spots on the wall, loose wallpaper, peeling paint on the ceiling or a damp smell in a hallway or room. And remember that water traveling into your home may take a circuitous route, running down rafters, top plates, studs and sole plates before reaching your ceiling.

If you suspect a leak, call an experienced Austin roofing contractor to inspect the integrity of your roof.

Update your home’s appearance
Even if you’re not experiencing specific problems, you might decide to reroof your home. Maybe a neighbor’s reroofing job has impressed you, or maybe you’re simply trying to give your house a face-lift.

Today with the introduction of the laminated shingle, the concept of roofing as a design element plays as much a part as home protection. Add a dimensional look to your roof through the use of layering, shadow lines or intricate blends of colors. Or, achieve the look of natural slate or wood shakes without the added expense.

Customer Testimonials

My highest recommendation for RoofCrafters‎‎.
We had severe hail damage last year and needed to replace our roof. Dave Harycki was a friend of a friend, and when I saw the work he had done on his and other homes, I was sold. We decided on a beautiful metal roof. The quality of work and final result has increased the value of our home and we absolutely love the way it looks. I've never worked…
