Roof Repair in Centennial, CO

The neighborhoods around The Streets at SouthGlenn are full of houses old enough to be on their second roof, and that is where a local roofer's eye pays off. We find where the water gets in, fix that detail, and quote the whole job before we start.

Free and no obligation. We answer or call back the same working day.

Roof Repair for Leaks and Damage

A repair here starts at the spot where water gets into the roof, which is rarely right above the stain on your ceiling.

Most of what we fix falls into three kinds of trouble: storm damage from hail and wind, worn "flashing" at chimneys, walls and valleys, and seals that have failed, from a split "pipe boot" to shingles whose "sealant bond" has let go and lifts in the wind.

  • Step flashing. The metal tucked where a roof meets a wall, checked right after the vent collars in a leak trace.
  • Ridge cap. The caps along the peak, where the nails sit closest to the top of the roof.
  • Valleys and chimney metal. Where two slopes meet or a chimney breaks the roof, water runs heaviest.
  • Skylight curbs. A raised, "curb-mounted" skylight is only as dry as the flashing around its curb.
  • The roof deck. Daylight through the boards in the attic means an open path for water.

Each repair is made with material matched to the roof around it, and the price you hear before we start is the price you pay.

Calls after 6 pm go to voicemail, and we return them the next working morning.

Weather

Climate and Roof Care

Summer here brings about 29.1 days a year of hard heat, and the sun works on an asphalt roof through every one of them.

Strong sun wears away the mineral grit that shields a shingle from UV, so "granule loss" shows up as grit in the gutters and bald patches on the slope. Heat also tests the factory seal between shingle tabs, and a tab that has let go lifts in the next wind.

With only about 17 inches of precipitation in a year, a small leak can sit quiet for weeks between storms and soak the deck again each time it rains. The time to have the roof looked at is right after a storm passes, before a stain finds its way indoors.

The houses

The Homes We Work On

The median house here was built in 1982, which means many of the roofs in town sit on houses that have been re-roofed at least once.

A re-roof often leaves older edge details in place, so on a house this age we look hard at the "drip edge" along the eaves, the "fascia" boards behind the gutters, where "dry rot" turns up once the trim comes off, and any "counterflashing" that has pulled open, which calls for rebuilding that detail rather than a quick patch.

We work all over town, from Southglenn and Castlewood to Piney Creek, Piney Creek Ranches and Chapparal, and every roof gets the same check before we quote it.

More Than a Repair

Some roofs need more than a fix. We replace, inspect and stabilize roofs here too, each priced in full before any work begins.

Replacement

Roof Replacement and Tear-Off

About 81.3 percent of the occupied homes here are lived in by their owners, so a new roof is usually a long-term call for the people under it.

When replacement is the right answer, a "tear-off" strips the old roofing down to the "roof deck", so soft or rotted boards get found and replaced before new shingles go on. An "overlay" skips that step and costs less up front, at the price of weaker fastening.

Inspection

Yearly Roof Inspection

There are 42,513 homes in the city, and after a hailstorm a good share of them want a roofer the same week.

A yearly inspection booked in late winter or early spring, when demand is lower, gets your roof walked before that rush. We go over the whole slope for split vent collars, worn granules, lifted tabs and debris packed behind the chimney "cricket", and photograph what we find.

Emergency

Emergency Roof Repair and Stabilizing

We are 8.3 miles away in Littleton, close enough to reach a storm-opened roof anywhere from the blocks around Arapahoe High School to the streets near Smoky Hill Library.

Stabilizing comes first: a tarp goes over the opening and gets fastened down so the next rain stays outside, then we price the permanent fix once we can see the whole roof. Emergency calls reach us Monday to Saturday, 7 am to 6 pm.

Nearby Towns We Cover

Our service area runs well past the town line, and the neighboring towns each have a page of their own on how roof repair goes there.

We also come out to Greenwood Village, Lone Tree, Englewood, Cherry Hills Village and Highlands Ranch. A job outside that footprint is a question for the call.

Water on the ceiling? Call before the next storm.

Tell us what you're seeing and roughly where the house is, and we'll set a time to get up on the roof and find the source.

We quote the whole job before we start, with no surprise charges after.
