Call (888) 685-2250Why roof repair in Mountlake Terrace, WA starts with the weather
Roofs in Mountlake Terrace have to cope with a long wet season and moss. These are the problems worth looking for from the ground before you call.
Moss lifting shingles
Moss holds water against the roof and pushes shingle edges up. It is brushed off by hand rather than pressure-washed, and zinc strips at the ridge slow its return.
A long wet season
Months of steady rain find every weak joint. Small flashing and vent leaks show up here that would stay hidden in a drier climate.
Rot at the edges
Constant moisture rots sheathing at eaves and valleys first. Replacing the soft wood is part of the repair.
