If your roof is damaged or leaking and is less than 15 years old, a roof repair can be more practical than full replacement. Common repairs include replacement of shingles and/or fascia boards, patching leaks, and fixing improperly installed flashing.

Commercial roofing tends to have very little slope or be entirely flat, with a focus on being strong enough to hold requied equipment. Commercial roofing can be single ply, built-up, metal, and more. Because they're flat, commercial roofs require more maintenance.

A roof inspection may be required by your homeowner's insurance, or you may get an inspection to check for damage before deciding on roof repair or replacement. During a roof inspection, a professional will look at the shingles, flashing, gutters, and more to determine the condition of the roof and provide an estimate on how long it may be until you need replacement. Some inspectors will climb on the roof for a physical inspection, while others will make an assessment from the ground. Others will use more advanced drone or infrared technologies. Regular inspections may be included in the homeowner's routine roof maintenance.

Skylights can bring in natural light, improve ventilation, and add architectural interest to your home. However, if your skylight is leaking, cracked, fogging over, or showing signs of water damage, it's important to contact a professional to schedule skylight repair. Roofers can replace skylight flashing and seals, broken or damaged glass, or open/close mechanisms that no longer work.

During gutter installation, professional roofers will remove the old gutters and downspouts from the eaves and brackets and check for damage such as rotted or failing boards and facia. From there, they will measure for new gutters, install them, and put on new downspouts and elbows. Finally, they'll clean the area and leave your home ready for the next rainstorm!

Roof waterproofing can provide an extra layer of protection against leaks in case shingles or other parts of the roof get damaged. Professional roofers will lay a base sheet or membrane under the usual underlayment and shingles. They'll also check the flashing around the vents, chimney, and skylights. If you have a flat roof, liquid membranes can be applied to improve waterproofing.

Getting solar panels installed is a mult-step process that starts with a site survey, and proceeds to design, permitting, and approval from the utility company to connect to the power grid. Then the solar panels are installed and inspected by the city or county, and the utility company installs a two-way meter. Finally, the solar panels are activated and start generating power.

Proper home insulation helps keep your home comfortable and lowers heating and cooling bills. Attic insulation helps keep summer heat contained and winter cold out, while basement insulation helps keep heat and cold from seeping in through the foundation. Common insulation materials include fiberglass, celulose, spray foam, and foam board.
