Need roof leak repair in East Grand Forks? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
If your East Grand Forks roof has been caulked twice and still leaks, the caulk was never the answer. Most of the stubborn ones come down to flashing at a chimney or wall, a valley that was never lapped right, or fasteners that have backed out.
Our roof leak repair work in East Grand Forks is handled by crews who do this every week, not by whoever happened to be free that morning. It shows up in the details — valleys, chimney flashing, eave and ridge closures — because that is where roofs actually leak.
We schedule your East Grand Forks roof leak repair for a stretch of dry weather, keep the job site picked up as we go, and do not leave a roof open overnight. When it is done the tear off is hauled away and a magnet goes over the drive.
Four steps and no surprises. This is how we have done it since 2002.
We look at the stain, the attic and the framing above it, because the path the water took tells us far more than the ceiling does.
If it is not obvious we test with water rather than guessing and charging you for a repair that fixes nothing.
Materials get matched as close as we can so the repair blends into the roof around it.
While we are up there we look over the whole roof, because one old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting.
The things people want to know before they tell us to go ahead.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on East Grand Forks homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
We fix the roof so it stops. Drywall and insulation repair inside a East Grand Forks home is a different trade, and we will tell you that honestly rather than pretending it is part of the roofing job.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a East Grand Forks ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Most leak repairs on a East Grand Forks home are a few hundred to around fifteen hundred dollars, depending on what has to be opened up and whether decking underneath has gone soft. The estimate is free.
Real feedback from homeowners we have worked for.
"The skylight had leaked for two years and three different people had caulked it. These folks reflashed it properly and that was the end of it."

"Standing seam on our log home. The panels are dead straight and the ridge work is clean. You can tell they have done a few of these."
