Stouffville Roofing

If your roof is approaching the end of its lifespan, it is time to do a replacement. However, note that age alone is not enough to warrant a replacement. You must be experiencing other issues like leaks. You should replace your roof if you notice signs of structural damage, such as wood rot, signs of sun damage, and if there is extensive damage, such as due to a fallen tree. There have also been technological advancements that make newer roofing materials more energy-efficient.

A roofing inspector is the best person to help you determine if you need to replace your roof. At D’Angelo and Sons, we have roof inspectors who pinpoint the problem and advise you on customized solutions. We offer the service free of charge where a roof replacement is required. We source our materials from top North American manufacturers. Our roofers are certified and have experience with all roof types. We clean up upon completion of our roof installation projects.

Improper installation and poor maintenance are leading causes of roof leaks. This is why you should leave roof repair and installation to a professional. Other leading causes of roof leaks are missing shingles, flashing problems around chimneys, skylights, roof vents, and other roof protuberances, defective roofing products, and debris on the roof. Leaks can also be caused by deteriorating roofing material as the roof ages, ice dams, poor water flow/slope problems, unsealed valleys, and raised roofing nails.

Water does not interact well with electricity. A leaky roof can cause short circuits, electrical fires, and electrocutions. A leaky roof can also cause slipping accidents, water damage to the roof framing, furniture, and other household items, and mould growth. At D’Angelo & Sons, we use different tried and tested methods to identify leaks. Our roofers have caulking, sealants, and other supplies needed to fix roof leaks, as well as the necessary tools and equipment. Hiring a professional for roof leak repair ensures you do not void the roofing material manufacturer’s warranty.

Stainless steel, tin, copper, and aluminum roofs are popular because of their longevity. There are coatings like galvanized zinc that extend the life of metal roofs even longer. These coatings prevent water damage and offer UV rays protection. Metal is a good conductor, which makes your home more energy efficient by retaining heat in winter and repelling heat in summer. Metal roofs are also resistant to pest damage, recyclable, lightweight, and easy to maintain.

The team at D’Angelo & Sons offers a wide range of metal roofing services. We do flat roof inspections, apply and re-apply metal coatings such as galvanized steel to increase your roof's longevity, replace and repair metal roofs, and help come up with roof maintenance plans. Our Stouffville roofers are certified, which ensures the manufacturer’s warranty is not void. We will carry the roofing material to your site in our dump trailer. We have an in-house bin service for cleaning up after the job is done. We endeavour to complete all our roofing Stouffville projects on time, safely, and within budget.

Flat roofs are becoming increasingly popular because they are less expensive and easier to install and maintain compared to pitched roofs, are easily accessible, and give you some extra space. Still, they do have some challenges when not properly cared for. The greatest drawback is their inability to evacuate water quickly after snowfall or rainfall, causing ponding.

Ponding weakens the structural integrity of the roof by causing metals to rust and wood to rot. At D'Angelo & Sons, we fix ponding issues by fixing low spots, flushing existing drains, adding more drain lines, installing roof crickets, and re-pitching the rooftop. If these measures do not work, we will replace the membrane. We also fix other flat roof problems like poor flashing installation, leaks, invasive vegetation, and poor ventilation. Our certified and experienced roofers have the tools, materials, supplies, and safety gear necessary to complete the job on time, safely, and to the highest quality standards. We have an in-house bin service for cleaning up after project completion.

Stouffville has cold winters and receives moderate rainfall throughout the year. This makes water damage one of the most common causes of roofing emergencies in the town. Water damage is caused by heavy rains, heavy snowfall, and hurricanes. Other common causes of roofing emergencies are holes on the roof made by pests, storm and wind damage blowing off shingles, tree damage, and roof neglect.

When you find yourself in a roofing emergency, you must first put yourself and your family out of harm's way. Be on the lookout for hazards like structural instability and power lines. You should then call emergency services, your roofer, and your insurer. You can minimize the damage by covering your belongings in tarping. At D’Angelo & Sons, our operations, administration, and accounting team are on standby 24/7, 365 days a year. Our vehicles are properly equipped to ensure we get to your property as quickly as possible. We will do a quick inspection to pinpoint the problem, take measures to avoid further damage and to make the site safe, and then start working on the issue.
