We find the actual cause before we repair anything. In Vernon that often means checking the attic or cathedral ceiling for condensation and air leaks, because a roof that leaks only during a thaw is usually an ice dam problem rather than a shingle problem. Where the roof itself has failed, from wind-lifted shingles on a ridge to cracked boots around plumbing vents, we make the repair with matching materials and proper membrane.
Asset Roofing & Chimney is licensed and insured, and estimates are free. We repair the asphalt shingle roofs that cover most Vernon homes and the flat roofs on additions, decks and commercial buildings, and we document storm and snow damage clearly for homeowners who need to file an insurance claim.
Repair or replace? What we tell Vernon homeowners
In Vernon, a repair is worth doing when the roof is structurally sound and the shingles still flex, and the problem traces to a specific detail such as an eave, valley, penetration or wind-damaged area. If the leak is driven by ice dams, we will explain what is happening in the attic or ceiling assembly, because adding membrane at the eaves without addressing heat loss only buys time.
If your home was a seasonal property and is now your primary residence, it is worth having the whole roof and attic evaluated once, even if only one spot is leaking. Converted vacation homes often have several marginal details that will fail in turn, and knowing that up front lets you decide between a sequence of repairs and a planned replacement.
