Hail Damaged Gutters:
Often when your roof has sustained hail damage, your gutters have probably also sustained damage. Hail damaged gutters can be weakened and should be checked immediately so that you can be sure that they do not fall under the weight of the water leaving your roof. Our highly trained staff can recognize the signs of hail damaged gutters and will be happy to develop a plan to repair or replace them.
Missing Sections:
One of the biggest signs of hail damaged gutters is if you find a section of your gutter laying on the ground, or broken from one end and hanging. This is a dangerous scenario and you should call us immediately so that we can assess the rest of the system to ensure that the loose areas can be reinstalled or replaced to prevent them from falling on your family or vehicles. High winds and other damaging weather can throw loose gutters around in your yard and a swinging gutter may end up going through a window.
Call us today for any gutter issues you may have.
Hail damaged siding is normally pretty easy to see. But even the smallest holes weaken the integrity of your building envelope. If your area has sustained hail or high winds, we recommend a complete inspection of your siding and roof to ensure that your home continues to protect your family.
Broken Siding / Holes:
If you find that your siding has holes in it, it is possible that your home or office has damage sustained in a hail storm. Most of the time this damage is covered by your insurance, and we will be glad to help walk you through the process of filing your claim and working with your insurance company to return your home to ideal condition. In addition, we will inspect your roof and gutters for damage and develop a plan to remedy any issues you have.
Matching Colors/Styles:
In a hail/high-wind situation, you may have siding damage on one side of your building and not on the other. We will help you match the new siding to the existing so that you are left with a uniform look on all areas of your home or office. If your insurance company suggest replacing your entire siding system, we can help you choose colors and styles to replace with.
If you suspect your home or office has sustained hail damage, call us today for more information.

Chimney flashing is installed around your chimney and ties your chimney to the roofing materials below it to create a watertight seal. If installed improperly or damaged, the chimney will no longer be sealed and a leak will appear.
Further Damage is Coming:
If your chimney flashing is leaking, it is just a matter of time before the building below it is damaged. If not repaired you will find damage to your rafters, sheetrock and potentially the flooring. We recommend that you call us as soon as you see anything that could be considered a leak in this area.

If you find that water is entering your fireplace, you may need a chimney cap repair. There are a number of reasons that your chimney cap may be leaking, and having it repaired quickly will prevent many issues that may follow.
Missing Chimney Vent:
If you have recently experienced a storm with high wind, your metal chimney may have been damaged or blown off. This will allow rain to fall directly into your chimney and flow down into your fireplace. As it is running down the chimney, it may also find a way into your attic or upper floors and cause unseen damage.
Cracked Chimney Cap:
Many chimney tops are designed with a concrete cap that is normally sealed and allows any rain to run off. As this chimney cap ages, it may develop cracks that will allow water into the chimney chase. This also results in rainwater falling into your fireplace. We specialize in sealing the cracked chimney cap and will solve your chimney's problem.
Don't put this off:
Water making its way into your fireplace can create many issues that will cost you more in the future. In addition to the obvious mold issues, if the water is finding its way into your attic or upper floors, you may have rotting wood that can deteriorate and cause structural damage around your chimney.
Call us today to look at your leaking chimney and advise you on the proper course of action.
