Newark Roof Repair Pros handles roof repair and replacement for homeowners and businesses in Garfield, NJ, and we focus on the exterior assembly, not just the shingles. That means flashing, fascia, soffit, gutters and the transitions where one roof plane meets another. Garfield's mix of older suburban houses and commercial buildings gives us plenty of these details to work on.
Flashing And Roof Transitions
Most leaks we see in Garfield start where the roof meets something else: a wall, a chimney, a vent or a lower roof section. Flashing is what keeps water out of those joints, and when it fails you get stains on ceilings and rot in the decking. We repair and replace flashing as part of the same visit whenever the roof work calls for it.
- Step and counter flashing at walls and chimneys
- Pipe boots, vents and skylight curbs sealed correctly
- Valley and dormer transitions checked for gaps
- Metal roofing and shingle roofing tied in cleanly
Fascia, Soffit And Gutters
The roof edge does more than hold the shingles down. Fascia and soffit support the overhang and vent the attic, and gutters move water away from the foundation. When one of those pieces rots or pulls loose, water ends up where it should not be. We inspect and repair all three together so the edge of the roof actually works.
- Rotten fascia boards replaced before they spread
- Soffit vents kept clear for attic airflow
- Gutter installation and resealing at joints and hangers
- Drip edge checked so water clears the fascia
Inspection And Storm Damage
Garfield gets its share of heavy rain, wind and winter ice, and roof damage is not always obvious from the ground. A roof inspection looks at the exterior details plus the attic side where stains show up first. If a storm caused the problem, we can also help with insurance claim assistance and emergency roof repair.
- Roof inspection covering flashing, edges and penetrations
- Storm damage repair for wind lifted and missing shingles
- Emergency roof repair to stop active water entry
- Insurance claim assistance with photos and scope details
If you have a leak, a soft spot near the edge or gutters pulling away, call us and we will take a look at the roof and the details around it. We work in Garfield from our base in Newark, about 11 miles away, so scheduling a visit is straightforward.
