We know the right way that a new roof should be built and we also know that some roofing companies that have provided services to Chandler AZ have been more focused on quality than others. Plus, roofs do not last forever. Even roofs with warranties that extend across several decades will not only need occasional maintenance and repair, but eventually will need to be replaced with a new roof.

We can detect active leaks that other roofers do not find

For homeowners in Chandler who are unfamiliar with how to precisely detect leaks in the roof on their home (or commercial building), there can be tremendous relief by having an experienced professional inspect the roof (and ceilings) for active leaks. Not only do our experienced roof inspectors know exactly what to look for on the outside of the roof, but you can even request the use of thermal imaging (infrared or "IR" cameras) to pinpoint cool areas where moisture has accumulated from a leak above. That method can be used to assess on the exterior of the home (siding), the top of the roof, and also the ceilings and walls of the interior.

Concentrations of moisture need to be found because they can lead to mold in your attic (or even the rapid rotting of wood). Further, if leaks are not quickly repaired, that can lead to interior flooding and extensive water damage. Just below is one example of how easy it can be to find water that has accumulated in your ceiling from a leaking roof. We find the moisture and then trace back to the leak, minimizing water damage by quickly repairing even the leaks that are hardest to see.



We detect the roof leaks, stop any flow of water, then assess whether emergency repairs will be enough

Relax because we are just considering what is best for you! We do not want you to pay for extensive repairs when the condition of the roof may qualify for a free replacement under your insurance coverage or warranty contract. In other words, if we can help you get a whole new roof for free (like paid by your insurance company), then wouldn't you want to at least find out about that before we do a bunch of emergency repairs that are not really what is best for you?

Besides repairing the most obvious leaks, how will we prevent future leaks, water damage, & mold contamination?

Will your roof pass a free inspection? Will your roof in AZ pass a free inspection? For most roofs in Chandler, there are two common issues that are assessed to determine the need for repair (or even replacement). The two issues are the exterior of the roof and the interior support of the roof (the decking, the underlayment, the flashing, etc).

First, the exterior surface of the roof is the most obvious issue. When you ask a roof inspector to get up on the roof and look at it after a hailstorm, then they can examine the marks left by the hail and inspect the roof for punctures, cracks, and bruising. They assess the condition of the shingles or tiles, etc...

Another simple issue that is common in Chandler is shingles that are no longer solidly attached. (Put your mouse over the images to the left and right to learn about the "small-looking" exterior roofing issues and then put your mouse over the images below to see the implications of neglecting to identify and repair small issues.)

Second, in addition to inspecting the exterior surface of the roofing material, the other important issue (which is not so easy to assess visually with the naked eye) is the condition of the support materials directly beneath the exterior roofing (including the decking immediately below the roof exterior). For instance, if significant amounts of moisture have penetrated down through the felt underlayment, then the exterior roofing can have a very weak bond with the underlying material, which may begin to rot.

Notice in the center of the image a pattern of lines that resembles the shape of bricks in a wall. You can see the rectangular shape of some of the water stains that formed around the outlines of the shingles. To the untrained eye, those roof shingles might not have looked like they were at risk for leaking, but they had been leaking badly for a long time!

Why do weak roofs in Chandler need repairs even without active leaks?

In an area like Chandler with strong winds expected every summer, it is favorable to repair any weak bonds in shingles prior to intense storms and high winds (that can rip shingles off of the roof). If one shingle or several shingles rip off in the middle of a monsoon storm pouring down rain that drips in to your attic, you do not want to have to wait 24 hours before a repair company can schedule to fix your roof.

If you have been around Chandler for several summers, you probably know that when there is a very bad storm with severe hail damage to a lot of roofs, it can be very hard to get an emergency roof repair service scheduled in Chandler without having to wait weeks or even months. It is best to fix those weak roofs in advance and prevent the need for a water damage restoration service (and even mold contamination and the need for remediation).

So, it is best for you to repair your roof in Chandler prior to storm season (in order to avoid a major expense and complication from water damage and interior flooding through leaks into the ceiling caused by hail or wind storms).

We will help you by preventing major damage to the roof such as a partial collapse. For flat or nearly flat roofs, which are very common in commercial buildings in Chandler AZ, even a small opening for water can be a big issue when pools of water accumulate after a heavy storm (like in the image to the right).

So, insurance companies are usually happy to pay for several hundreds of dollars of repairs if they strongly suspect that the next storm season would cause much worse damage to your roof in Chandler. They want to prevent the need for a water damage restoration service, which can be several thousand dollars (at a minimum).

The inconvenience of a brief roof inspection (or even minor repairs or re-roofing) is quite small compared to having a crew of restoration contractors replacing everything: the roof and the ceiling and even the drywall in the interior space (due to water damage that has leaked through a poorly supported roof). Oddly enough, slow leaks can be even more inconvenient then sudden flooding because the slow leak will almost inevitably produce mold contamination which can result in a large amount of drywall needing to be replaced.

a leaking roof can lead to water damage and mold. Avoid needing major restoration services by getting a free roof inspection today. Basically, with severe mold contamination, large amounts of the interior of the home in Chandler may need to be carefully removed and then re-built. So, it is obviously favorable to find damage when it is minor or even prevent it from happening through regular roof inspections. On the right above, the plywood in that attic is almost as green as moldy bread!

Why to choose our roofing specialists in Chandler AZ

a leaking roof can lead to water damage. Avoid needing major restoration services by getting a free roof inspection today. Because our general contractor has been a specialist in the damage restoration industry in Chandler Arizona for so long, that gives us some unique advantages, including because of our extensive experience with insurance companies paying for roof damage repairs and water restoration services.

In particular, we are used to tracking back the source of major interior mold damage to a small leak in the roof. A small leak that goes undetected for a long time can lead to a constant trickle or drip of moisture that penetrates into the interior drywall and results in mold damage that may not be visible until we cut into the drywall. On the left, the water damage shown was a result of the original roofers neglecting to put metal flashing all the way to the edge of the roof, so water dripped in to the plywood wall, rotting it.

So, we know from lots of personal experience the amount of damage that even small roof leaks can cause you in Chandler. We know how a very small issue that may be nearly invisible from the exterior of the home (at least to an untrained observer) can lead to major restoration costs. We have tracked back from years of mold and rotting wood to find small leak in a roof that could have been repaired for a few hundred dollars at most.

We know that if we find a certain severity of damage to a roof during a roof inspection, then we also can conduct some precise tests to measure the amount of moisture in the walls as well as insert a camera through a small opening to look for signs of mold contamination. Finally, in the next section, you can see several photos that display how thermal imaging technology can provide simple clarity about exactly how much moisture accumulation has been caused by a leaking roof.

Using thermal imaging (infrared cameras) to locate the moisture from leaking roofs

We have all seen ugly stains on ceilings caused by a leaking roof, maybe even some in Chandler. But have you ever seen thermal images that show the cold areas where there is an accumulation of moisture from a roof leak (or from some other source of water)? Take a look at a few of these images and witness the power of this heat-sensing technology to simplify and speed up the process of identify roof leaks early before they lead to major water damage restoration and repairs from areas contaminated by mold.
