Roof Repair
Roof Repair Across the Wasatch Front
Repairs come first. Always. Sealing a restoration treatment over a shingle that is already torn, or over flashing that has pulled away from a chimney, does not fix anything. It hides it for a season.
So on most jobs the repair work happens before the treatment goes on: shingle replacement, crack sealing, leak repair, flashing put right. Sometimes the repair is the entire job and there is no treatment at all.
What we repair
- Wind damage. Davis County and the Point of the Mountain lift shingles every winter. Brittle ones tear at the nail line instead of lying back down.
- Leaks. Usually flashing, not shingles. Chimneys, vent boots and valleys account for most of what we find.
- Cracked and curling shingles. Replaced where they are past saving, sealed where they are not.
- Vent boots. The rubber collar around a plumbing vent dries out and splits years before the roof around it does.
- Storm and hail damage. Documented with photos you can hand to an adjuster.
When repair is the whole answer
If your roof is under about ten years old and one section is leaking, you almost certainly need a repair and nothing else. Treating a young roof is not useful, and we will say so.
The other direction is just as important. If we open up a repair and find rotted decking underneath, that changes the recommendation entirely, and you will hear about it that day with photos rather than in an invoice later.

Common questions
About roof repair
How do I know if I need a repair or a full roof restoration?
Repair fixes one spot. Restoration treats the whole roof.
If you have a leak in one corner, a few shingles lifted by wind, or flashing pulling away from a chimney, that is a repair. If the roof is 12 to 25 years old, the color has gone flat, the edges are curling and the gutters have grit in them, the whole surface is drying out at once and a repair only buys you a season.
Most inspections turn up both. We do the repairs first, then treat the roof, because sealing a treatment over a bad shingle just hides it.
What if my roof actually needs replacing?
Then we say so, and we do not charge you for finding out.
Every homeowner gets the before-and-after photo report either way. If the answer is "this roof is done", you walk away with documentation you can hand to a roofer or an insurance adjuster. We would rather lose the job than treat a roof that cannot be saved.
How long does a typical roof restoration take?
Most single-family homes are done in one day, often in half a day. There is no tear-off, no dumpster in your driveway, and no crew back the next morning.
Repairs found during the inspection can add time. A steep or cut-up roof takes longer than a simple gable. We tell you the day count before we start, not after.
