What it is & how it works

Roof Repairs & Leak Fixes in plain English

Not every roof needs replacing. If yours has a leak, storm damage, missing shingles, or failing flashing, we'll come out, find the real source, and fix it right — without pushing you into a full tear-off you don't need.

Most Seattle roof leaks trace back to flashing, pipe boots, valleys, or ridge caps — not the shingles themselves. We do a full diagnostic (interior + exterior + attic when accessible), photograph the actual failure, and give you a written repair scope with a clear price before any work starts. Common repairs: replacing cracked pipe boots with lifetime silicone boots, re-flashing chimneys and skylights, patching wind-lifted or missing shingles with matched color, rebuilding failed valley flashing, and sealing nail-pops before they turn into leaks. If a repair won't hold, we'll say so — and give you honest options.

Understanding your options

Tiers, styles & what's included

Tap any tier to see exactly what's in it, what it costs relative to the others, and who it fits best.

Option 1

Leak Diagnostics & Repair

Water rarely enters where it drips inside — it travels along rafters and sheathing before appearing. We trace it back to the true entry point.

  • Interior, exterior, and attic inspection
  • Moisture meter readings at drywall and framing
  • Photo report of exactly what's failing
  • Repair scope with clear pricing before we start
  • Same-week response on active leaks
Option 2

Storm & Wind Damage

Wind-lifted shingles, tree branches, hail — we handle the full repair and insurance paperwork.

  • Emergency tarp within 24 hours
  • Insurance claim documentation & meet-the-adjuster service
  • Color-matched shingle replacement
  • Full deck inspection where impact occurred
Option 3

Flashing, Boots & Valleys

About 90% of leaks aren't shingles — they're the metal work around penetrations.

  • Hand-bent step and counter flashing
  • Lifetime silicone pipe boots (not the 5-year rubber kind)
  • Rebuilt valley flashing with peel-and-stick membrane underneath
  • Chimney crown rebuilds and re-flashing
  • Kickout flashing added where siding meets roof
Option 4

Moss Treatment & Cleaning

PNW moss eats shingles from the top down. We treat it before it costs you a roof.

  • Soft-wash moss treatment (no power washing that voids warranties)
  • Zinc strip installation to prevent regrowth
  • Full debris and gutter cleanout included
  • Annual maintenance plans available
Option 5

Skylight & Chimney Repairs

The two most common leak sources on a Seattle roof, and the two most-often botched by other crews.

  • Re-flash skylights without removing the skylight
  • Replace failed Velux underlayment kits
  • Rebuild chimney counter flashing let into the mortar joint
  • Chimney crown re-cap and cricket install upslope of wide chimneys
Option 6

Emergency Tarp & Board-Up

Storm just took a chunk of your roof off? We can be on site within 24 hours in the Greater Seattle area to secure it before more damage happens.

  • 24-hour emergency tarp service
  • Damage documentation for insurance
  • Board-up of open decking
  • Follow-up scope for permanent repair or replacement

The system

How we approach a repair

A roof is a stack of layers — each one has a job. Here's what goes into every one we build, in plain English.

  2. Damaged shingles / flashing / boots
    Isolate the failure point
  3. Ice & water patch
    Peel-and-stick over the compromised area
  4. Matched shingle / metal replacement
    Blends into the surrounding field
  5. Sealant + fastener check
    Every nail and boot re-checked in the work zone

Common questions

What Seattle homeowners ask us about roof repairs & leak fixes

How much does a typical roof repair cost?+

Small repairs (pipe boot, missing shingles, minor flashing) usually run $350 – $850. Mid-sized repairs (valley rebuild, chimney re-flash) are $900 – $2,500. Everything is quoted in writing with photos before we start work.

How do I know if I need a repair or full replacement?+

If the leak is at a specific penetration (pipe, chimney, skylight, valley), it's almost always a repair. If shingles are curling or losing granules across the whole roof, or the roof is over 25 years old with multiple leaks, replacement is usually the smarter dollar. We'll tell you straight — no upsell.

Can you match the color of my old shingles?+

Yes for anything under ~15 years old. Manufacturers keep shingle colors in production for 15 – 20 years, and we save leftover bundles from every install for future repairs. Very old roofs sometimes need a full slope replaced for visual match.

Will a repair void my roof warranty?+

Not when it's done to manufacturer spec — which we do. Repairs performed by non-certified crews can void the warranty. Ask before you hire anyone to touch your roof.

Do you do emergency after-hours calls?+

Yes — call 425.686.9695 anytime. We prioritize active interior leaks and can tarp most Seattle roofs within 24 hours.
