Regular Roof Inspections Matter
At Sky Chief Roofing and Solar, we recently encountered a prime example of why regular roof inspections are crucial. What appeared to be minor damage from the outside turned out to be a major issue lurking beneath the surface. This blog post highlights the importance of thorough roof assessments and how we handle extensive repairs.
The Deceptive Nature of Roof Damage
When we first inspected our customer’s roof, the damage wasn’t immediately apparent. However, once we began the roof replacement process, we uncovered severe water damage to the roof underlayment. This crucial layer, also known as roof felt or roofing felt, had become severely warped and deteriorated due to long-term water exposure.
Addressing the Underlying Issues
Our experienced crew had to remove the damaged underlayment entirely before proceeding with the roof replacement. This additional step is vital to ensure the new roof’s longevity and effectiveness. By addressing these hidden issues, we prevent future problems that could compromise the integrity of the entire roofing system.
Working with Insurance Companies
One of the benefits of choosing Sky Chief Roofing and Solar is our commitment to helping customers navigate the insurance claim process. In this case, we successfully worked with the homeowner’s insurance company to cover the cost of the extensive repairs, including the underlayment replacement. This meant our customer only had to pay their deductible, despite the significant work required.
Comprehensive Roofing Solutions
Our team doesn’t just stop at the main roof. In this project, we also replaced the roof on the customer’s shed, ensuring all structures on the property were protected. From the initial free roof inspection to the final cleanup, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service at every step of the process.
The Importance of Regular Inspections
This project underscores the critical need for regular roof inspections. Damage that’s invisible from the ground can lead to extensive and costly repairs if left unchecked. By catching these issues early, homeowners can save significant money and prevent more severe damage to their property.
