How Roof Repair Can Help

Your roof is made up of a variety of smaller components that work together to form a protective system. Maybe all you need is just a localized roof repair, and it would be cost-effective to just do a repair without impacting other areas of the roofing system. A top quality, experienced roofer can perform a roof inspection that will not only pinpoint where the problem areas are, but will also assess whether the condition of the rest of the roof. If the repair can be made without compromising the roof system, then we'll be able to tell.

The danger in a repair is that fixing the obvious problem might damage more of the roof, and not address the real issues underlying the damage. So even if insurance has been out and kicked a couple of bucks your way, you want to make sure that the damage is properly repaired. If it is an insurance claim, they owe to fix it right, not just apply a patch job. Too many roofing companies nearby will be all too happy to take some quick cash and slap a couple of shingles and some caulk on your roof. Before you let them, have us out to make sure that's all that's needed. Once you've done those repairs, it may be too late to get anything more for that claim.

How Much Does Roof Repair Cost?

It ultimately depends on the damage that has caused the leak. If it's something simple, like caulking around a pipe flashing, the repair could be relatively cheap. If the leak is a part of the roof that could require more extensive reparation, or a larger area needs to be repaired it will end up costing a bit more. If however, it's storm damage that is causing the leak, insurance will typically pay for the repairs. If that is the case then your only cost would be your deductible, and we offer financing for your deductible. (Although we would love to be able to waive your deductible , its illegal; beware of any roofing company that offers to wave your deductible as it is insurance fraud). A complimentary inspection is something that we do offer though, and it is a great first step in determining the cost of your roof repairs. As an added bonus, there's no obligation.

Roof Repair Examples

Here are some examples of things that look like a simple repair, but aren't.

Wind Damaged Roof Repair

Roof repairs for wind damage are sometimes possible without needing a full roof replacement, and sometimes they're not. It takes an experienced and honest roof specialist, like the ones at Cook Roofing Company, to determine this. If you're in Fortescue, MO, 64437, you really need to call Cook Roofing Company for a professional roof evaluation to determine the reparability of the damage.

FAQ

Can a shingle roof be repaired?
Shingle roofs can be repaired under some circumstances. Shingle roof repair requires lifting the shingles higher up on the roof, above the damaged shingles, enough to be able to remove the damaged ones, and nail on new shingles. If the roof is new, the shingles are likely pliable enough to be able to bend enough for the repair without breaking. On a roof that is more than a few years old though, this might not be the case. Near the ridge, the other shingles can just be replaced too. Other issues with shingle repair is that the underlayment will have holes in it, and the new shingles may not match. If you have a lot of damaged shingles, you may be eligible for a roof replacement, even if your insurance adjuster didn't approve that the first time. Adjusters get this wrong more often than not, trying to save the insurance company money. Get a second opinion from a reliable roofing contractor who will give an experienced assessment and write a thorough estimate. Then the insurance adjuster can come back and do a re-inspection.
Can you seal a metal roof with caulking?
Yes, you can seal a metal roof with caulking. But it's only a temporary fix, and it will make a roof replacement later cost more, because it makes the whole thing much more difficult to remove. If you don't really know what you're doing, you can create more problems on your roof in the process. We've seen some pretty bad instances of these caulking roof repairs. Sometimes you just trap moisture, and don't get it sealed 100%, so water still gets in. Then what you have is a mess. It's worth a little extra expense, and a lot more peace of mind, to have a professional roofing company come out and seal your roof for you, after checking it first.
Can you repair a roof yourself?
People repair their own roofs all the time. You just need to keep in mind a few things. Most people do not know how to find a roof leak. They do not know what's under their shingles or metal, or how to tell if there is water damage to the structures underneath. Plus, the reason that roofing is one of the most dangerous construction occupations is because experienced roofers fall all the time. So, with some education, some safety equipment when it's called for, and a lot of precaution, there's nothing magical a roofer can do, that you can't. The real question is whether all of that is worth the risk, effort, and time for you. How much is your time worth, how confident are you of being able to do it right, and how much risk are you willing to accept? Financing is often available with the better roofing companies. At the very least, you should ask a reputable roofer to come out and give you a free roof evaluation. Tell them you think you'd like to do the repairs yourself. Most will explain what's needed, but it will be up to you to do it. Some roofers might charge a small fee for this service, but the custom advice will be well worth it.
