While most homeowners can tackle minor home improvements on their own, a “do it yourself” roof repair is not recommended.  Your roof is vital to the structural integrity of your home.  An incorrect installation or repair may lead to more problems that may cause thousands in the future. For example, damage to your electrical wiring can cause fires and damaged decking can result in a collapse.  Consulting one of our skilled professionals may save you money and even the lives of you and your family.

A soffit is located underneth the fascia which allows for proper ventilation.  The fascia is the board that is visible and adds curb appeal. 

The most obvious consequence of a leaking roof is damaged rafters, ceiling joists and wall framing which may compromise the integrity of the structure.  Fascia boards and exterior trim can become victims of water intrusion as well.  This can result in expensive wood framing repairs if water leaks down into ceiling joists and walls.  In addition, mold and mildew growth can spread throughout the structure of the home and pose a serious health problem to you and your family.
