Snow Damage Repair

What This Service Involves

When lowland Washington gets a rare heavy snowfall, roofs designed for our usual mild loads can be overstressed by the sudden weight. Wet Cascade snow is especially dense, bending gutters, cracking shingles, and occasionally straining rafters beyond their comfort zone. Our crews inspect for structural deflection, damaged edge metal, and shingles cracked by the freeze that often accompanies the snow. We repair the affected areas and advise on safe load management for the next unusual storm.

Benefits

Assesses structural strain from heavy snow loads; Repairs cracked shingles and bent edge metal; Checks rafters and ridges for deflection; Restores gutters and eaves damaged by sliding snow; Guidance on safe snow-load management

Our Process

1) Inspect the roof for structural deflection and cracking; 2) Evaluate gutters and eaves for snow-load damage; 3) Repair or replace damaged roofing and metal; 4) Advise on load monitoring for future heavy snowfalls

What Affects the Cost

Weight and duration of the snow load; Structural components affected; Damage to gutters and fascia; Extent of cracked or displaced shingles; Difficulty of safe winter access

Best Time of Year

Snow damage appears after mid-winter cold snaps, and we recommend inspection as soon as accumulation melts enough for safe access.
