Signs of Roof Failure

G&C Home Improvements can help you identify and solve virtually every type of residential roofing problem. Below are some of the more common problems that can be remedied with a complete roof shingle replacement, attic ventilator, flashing repair, additional insulation or an appropriate combination of these solutions.

* Water Leakage in Attic After Wind Driven Rain – Leaky or inadequate shingle underlayment or deteriorated flashing.

* Dark, "Dirty-Looking" Areas On Your Roof – possible cause: Environmental pollutants; vegetation, fungus, mold or black algae or the loss of granules due to age of shingles.

* Stains on Interior Ceilings and Walls or Mold and Mildew Growth – possible cause: Faulty underlayment allowing leakage or inadequate attic ventilation.

* Leakage in Attic After Ice Build-Up – possible cause: Deteriorated shingle underlayment allows water from ice dams to push water into attic area.

* Blistering or peeling of interior or exterior paint – possible cause: Excessive temperature or high humidity due to poor attic ventilation

* Excessive Energy Usage – possible cause: not enough attic ventilation causes heating and cooling system to run continuously. Inadequate ventilation can trap hot air in the attic, causing cooling systems to work harder.

* Insufficient Attic Ventilation: In hot and cold climates, insufficient attic ventilation may cause moisture in the attic to condense on the rafters. This condensed moisture may drip onto the insulation and reduce its effectiveness and useful life span.

* Roof Sheathing or Siding Decay – possible cause: Insufficient ventilation

* Cracked and Curled Roof Shingles – possible cause: Shingles are old and have reached the end of their functional life.
