Get Value with a Roof Tune-up

Preventive roof maintenance, also known as Roof Tune-ups or Roof Restorations, involve adding polyurethane sealants on flashing around chimney, heater vents, roofs jacks, and turbines. Similar to  automobiles with belts and hoses, after 8 years or so, roofing sealants  made of polymers or silicone, have begun to crack and become brittle allowing water to penetrate through the vent collars into your home. Failure of these old sealants can lead to rotting the wood deck that your shingles  need to firmly adhere to your roof .  In addition mold growth is a concern, not to mention the damage to walls, studs behind them, and damage to flooring as well.

Additionally, other unexpected  holes in your roof are sources for water leaks. One of the causes for this is that nails after a while become exposed to the elements because the polymers have become so brittle that it has cracked off, no longer covering the nail heads. When this happens the nail head will eventually rust off causing a hole and another point for rain water access.
During the preventive maintenance/restoration/tune-up these nails are recovered with new polyurethane sealant to protect this from happening.

Tree branches that have fallen off trees  are another cause of unexpected holes in your shingles.

THE COST OF TUNE-UPS  IN MOST CASES RANGE FROM $1500 TO $2100   DEPENDING ON THE STEEPNESS, SAFE LADDER ACCESS, AND THE NUMBER OF VENTS IN YOUR ROOF.
