Roofing Repair
for Santa Fe, Placitas, Los Alamos, El Dorado, Las Campanas, El Rancho, NM & Beyond

Roofs keep our property protected from the elements. Their main duties are to enclose the property, keep out the elements, and direct moisture away from the property. It does not matter if you have a metal, asphalt shingle, TPO, or any other type of roof, they all do the same thing. To do their duties, roofs are constantly contending with the hot sun, rain, wind, and debris. This takes its toll. It causes issues that need to be repaired for the roof to continue to do its job.

Signs Your Residential Roof Needs Repairs

  • Damaged Shingles: Most homes in the Santa Fe, NM area utilize shingle roofs. If you notice that your shingles are cracked, curling, or even missing, there is an issue. Damaged shingles present an opportunity for moisture to enter your home.

 

  • Higher Energy Bills: As a roof ages and parts become damaged or worn out, your home’s energy efficiency decreases. This leads to you having to use more energy to heat and cool your home, thus spending more money on energy bills. Gradual increases are normal but sudden spikes are concerning. Roof repairs can reduce your energy costs, regardless whether it is normal wear and tear or a sudden change.

 

  • Leaks: Leaks should always be fixed immediately. They let in water that can wreak havoc on your home. Get them fixed as soon as possible to prevent water damage in your home.

 

  • Granule in Gutters: As your asphalt shingles age, they will begin to lose their granule, which will end up in your gutters. It is normal to see a little bit of granule in your gutters, but a large amount is a cause for concern.

Signs Your Commercial Roof Needs Repairs

Most commercial roofs utilize TPO roofing. TPO roofing is a rubber roofing material that is sold in rolls. It is “glued” together using heat. Here are some signs to look out for on your TPO roof.

  • Bubbles: Bubbles typically occur when moisture builds up under the top layer of the roof. Noticing a lot of bubbles likely means you need roofing repairs because there is moisture that can be entering your property.
  • Clogged Downspouts: If your downspouts are not carrying water away from your roof, water will begin to pool on your roof. This can cause many issues such as leaks, rotting, and mold. If you have pools of water on your roof or clogged downspouts, you may need repairs.
  • Rising Energy Bills: Small raises in your energy bills are common as your roof ages, but large changes are not. If your bills are rapidly rising, you may need repairs or a replacement.
  • Water Damage: Noticing water stains on the ceiling, insects and rodents around the building, or high humidity inside? This is a sign that there are issues with your roof that are allowing moisture to enter your property.
  • Damaged Flashings: Your flashing aids in keeping moisture out of areas where two flat planes meet. If you notice your flashings look flimsy, rusted, or damaged, they will need to be replaced.
