Shingle repair FAQ
What’s the most popular kind of roofing?
Asphalt shingles are the most popular. They’re made of asphalt on a mat of fiberglass, covered with reflective granules to protect them from ultraviolet light.
What are some of the signs I need shingle repair?
No matter what kind of shingles you have, warped, displaced or missing shingles are an obvious warning sign. If they’re asphalt, check your roof gutters for light granules that feel gritty. Those are part of the shingle, and if they’re wearing off, you need shingle repair, or you soon will.
I’ve heard you shouldn’t try to do asphalt shingle repair yourself. What about a slate roof?
You can’t even walk on a slate roof, let alone repair it. Slate may be weatherproof, but if you put the weight of your body on one of those shingles, it’ll crack. If you’re lucky enough to have a long-lasting slate roof, find a roofer that can do this sort of shingle repair.
