COMMON ROOFING PROBLEMS IN NORTHERN COLORADO

Blow-off damage

BLOW-OFF DAMAGE

One way that high winds damage roofing materials is by blowing the finished roofing entirely off the roof. Blow-off damage typically occurs in just a section of the roof or on an entire side of the roof that was exposed to the highest wind speeds and gusts.

HOW TO FIX IT:

If sections of the roof have been blown off by high winds, we will install new roofing in those sections and ensure that your home is properly protected against future storms.

Major structural damage

MAJOR STRUCTURAL DAMAGE

Storms and high winds damage roofing indirectly by causing tree limbs and even entire trees to fall on the roof. Structural damage from impacts can range from small punctures in the roofing and roof sheathing to the complete collapse of the roof or roof section.

HOW TO FIX IT:

Depending on the damage, we will decide if the damage is worth fixing or if a roof replacement will provide better results. As a general exterior contractor we can address structural damage when we address your roofing.

Damaged shingles

DAMAGED SHINGLES

Roof shingles can show signs of damage simply because they’re wearing out. In other cases, damage occurs due to wind, impact, or foot traffic.

Old shingles often cup, curl, and become brittle. “Bald” shingles that have lost their protective granules can also age prematurely when exposed to direct sunlight.

HOW TO FIX IT:

Sometimes shingles can be repaired and sometimes the roofing will need to be replaced. Our expert roofers will inspect your roof and choose the best course of action depending on the extent of the damage.

ROOF LEAKS

Unless a large tree branch has punched a hole in your roof, roof leaks can be difficult to detect. Water can leak past the roofing materials through a hole made by a popped nail, damaged flashing, or water backed up behind an ice dam.

HOW TO FIX IT:

It’s smart to call in an experienced roofing professional if you find water leaking into your house from above. Champion Roofing will inspect the roof, flashing, eaves, shingles, and attic to find the source.

Roof leaks

DAMAGED OR MISSING ROOF FLASHING

The main purpose of flashing is to keep water away from building materials that can be damaged by moisture. Flashing can be replaced or reused during re-roofing and roof repair.

HOW TO FIX IT:

A roofing inspection should always include the inspection of roof flashing to identify damaged or missing flashing problems that require correction.

DAMAGED SKYLIGHTS

Impact from hail and windblown objects will sometimes crack the glass in roof-mounted skylights.

HOW TO FIX IT:

In some cases the damaged glass panel can be replaced, but most often a new skylight unit must be installed.

Roof ventilation issues

ROOF VENTILATION ISSUES

Sometimes roof vents allow insects and animals into the attic because they aren’t properly screened. In other cases, there may not be sufficient ventilation or vent openings may be blocked.

HOW TO FIX IT:

A skilled, full-service roofing contractor will be able to diagnose and fix these problems and either repair a damaged roof vent or install new vents if necessary.

Rotted wood

ROTTED WOOD

When wood gets wet and can’t dry out completely, wood rot is likely to occur. Even a small leak can result in rotted roof sheathing and rafters.

HOW TO FIX IT:

We will inspect the damaged area, remove rotted materials, and repair the roof structure before protecting the home with the right roofing solution.

Too many layers of roofing

TOO MANY LAYERS OF ROOFING

When too many roofing layers are installed, the uppermost shingles may be uneven or poorly anchored. The combined weight can also exceed the strength of the roof framing.

HOW TO FIX IT:

The solution is to remove the extra layers of roofing and start fresh, directly on the roof sheathing.
