Slate Tile Roof Repair Services We Provide
Slate tile roofs have earned a reputation for durability and longevity, often lasting 100 years or more with proper inspection and maintenance. But this doesn't mean they won't need repairs from time to time. Here are some common issues the team at Tim Walford Roofing has helped homeowners with
Broken or Cracked Tiles
When there is heavy impact on a slate tile roof such as large tree branches, they will break or crack. If this happens it's important to replace the damage tile to prevent any poential water from getting through the roof's structure, causing damage to the underlying portion of the roof (your attic and insulation for example). Our team will carefully remove any broken tiles and replace them with new ones, making sure to match the color with the rest of the roof structure.
Leaks
As with any roofing material, leaks can be cause by a variety of factors: cracked tiles, damaged flashing, or clogged gutters just to name a few. If you are noticing leaks in your slate tile roof, we will come to your property and inspect the roof to deterimine where the cause of the leak is happening. We will then make necessary repairs to restore or replace the tile to prevent any future leaks.
Loose or Missing Tiles
As roofs age over time, slate tiles can loosen or even fall off. Usually due to weather factors like high winds that come through San Diego throughout the year. To the naked eye all the tiles may seem secure until the winds (or rains) expose some of the loose one's. If this happens, it's relatively easy to replace a few missing slate tiles to get the roof back up to proper shape.
Aging Roof
As yoru slate tile roof starts to age over the years, it may begin to show signs of general wear and tear including fading, cracking, or flaking. If you notice this and would like the trained professionals at Tim Walford Roofing to do an inspection we can come check it out. We will be able to determine if the roof is fine (just showing age), or if there are some potential future lingering issues.
With this particular roofing material, slate tiles require special care and handling to prevent damage during repairs or replacement. With our experience we can get the tiles replaced properly and secure your home for years to come!
