Free roof inspection, with a photo report of what we find.
Roof repair in Godfrey starts with finding the cause
A water stain on a ceiling rarely sits directly under the problem. Water can travel along decking and rafters before it shows up inside, so we trace it back to where it gets in rather than patching the spot that looks wet.
The usual suspects are worth checking one by one:
- Pipe boots and vent collars, where rubber seals crack with age and sun.
- Flashing at chimneys, walls and skylights that has lifted or lost its seal.
- Valleys, where two roof slopes meet and carry the most water.
- Shingles that have lifted, creased or blown off in wind.
- Gutters that overflow and push water back under the roof edge.
Once we know the source, we explain the fix and put it in a written estimate. Our roof repair page covers the process in more detail.

What to do before we arrive
If you notice a leak, put a container under drips, move anything valuable out of the way and take photos of what you can see inside and from the ground. Please stay off the roof. Those photos help us start the inspection in the right place when we come out for roof repair in Godfrey.
When replacement is the better option
If problems are spread across the whole roof rather than one area, repairs may not hold for long. In that case we will talk you through roof replacement alongside repair, so you can compare both.
