Roof Replacement

Roof Replacement Baton Rouge, LA

As your roof ages and faces the demands of Louisiana’s climate — intense heat, high humidity, and an active hurricane season — regular inspections by a licensed roofing contractor become one of the smartest investments a Baton Rouge homeowner can make. Catching a small problem early almost always means a minor repair rather than a major one. Most of the time, that’s all it takes to extend your roof’s life significantly and keep your home fully protected.

At Reliable Roofing and Construction, we’ve been serving homeowners across Baton Rouge and Greater East Baton Rouge Parish for over 17 years. We perform thorough roof inspections and handle every type of roof repair — from replacing a few storm-damaged shingles and re-flashing a chimney, to addressing the kind of wear that Louisiana’s weather quietly accelerates year after year. Every repair is backed by our 5-Year Labor Warranty, and every estimate is provided in writing with no obligation.

Whether your roof has taken recent storm damage, hasn’t been inspected in a few years, or your insurance carrier is requesting documentation ahead of renewal, we’ll give you an honest assessment of exactly what your roof needs — and nothing it doesn’t.

Roof repairs are a great way to keep your roof safe and sturdy, especially ahead of Baton Rouge hurricane season and scorching heat. A Baton Rouge roof repair is the ideal solution when minor areas on your roof have been damaged, rather than larger portions of your roof. Further, when you entrust Roof Repair Solutions with your repairs, we will remove and replace the damaged roof shingles with matching ones and weatherize the rest of your roof to reinforce it and prevent further damage.

Signs Of Roof Damage

There are several signs that may indicate your roof has been damaged, but one sure sign that your roof is in dire need of repair is that of missing roof shingles. Missing roof shingles are often caused by the following:

Wind Roof Damage

In Baton Rouge, the spring is known for its windy conditions, and so is most of the hurricane season–especially when a tropical storm or hurricane is near. Wind roof damage appears as:

  • Lifted roof shingles
  • Missing roof shingles

Loosened, damaged roof shingles are more prone to lifting from the wind, and once they are already lifted, heavier storm winds can tear them off completely, exposing the underlying structure to further storm damage. Don’t forget that roof shingles are all nailed together, so adjacent roof shingles will fly off right alongside their damaged counterparts. 

Critter Roof Damage

Critters love to make your home their own, which usually begins with curiosity and wandering onto your roof. Critters, such as squirrels and raccoons, may find a loose roof shingle and start to dig and pick at. As a result, they will slowly but surely rip off the affected roof shingles, leading to missing roof shingles and large bald spots on your roof.

Common Causes of Roof Leaks

There are a number of reasons why roof leaks might occur, but some are more common than others. Here are the three most common causes of roof leaks, according to Reliable Roofing:

1. Poor Installation

This is the most common cause of roof leaks, and it can be due to a number of factors such as incorrect installation, nailing outside of the nail strip, or not using the right type of sealant.

2. Damaged Shingles

Shingles can become damaged for a variety of reasons, such as wind, hail, or rain. If a shingle is damaged, it can allow water to seep through the roof.

3. Improper Ventilation

If your roof isn’t properly ventilated, it can lead to moisture accumulation, which can then cause roof leaks.

There’s nothing worse than a leaky roof. Not only is it a major hassle to have to deal with, it can also be a major safety hazard for your home. That’s why Reliable Roofing is here to help. We specialize in roof repairs, and we’re dedicated to providing our customers with the best possible service.
