Small roof leak? Here's what it should cost.
Honest answers from TruRoof, emergency roof repair in Kenwood, OH.
You live in Kenwood, maybe off Montgomery Road or near the Kenwood Towne Centre. You see a water stain on the ceiling or a few shingles out of place after the wind. You don't want a sales pitch for a full replacement. You just want a fair repair price.
A small leak often starts at the flashing. That is the metal strip where the roof meets a wall or chimney. Wind can lift shingles and let water sneak in. You might see a damp spot inside or a few granules in the gutter. It looks worse than it is.
Most small repairs cost between $300 and $800. Replacing a handful of shingles or resealing flashing falls in that range. The price goes up if the wood underneath is rotted or if the leak spread under the roof deck. You are not stuck with a full replacement just because one spot failed.
Call TruRoof at the first sign of trouble. Ask for a repair quote only. We can tarp the roof the same day to stop the leak. Then we fix the damage without pushing a new roof you do not need. You stay in control.
Once the repair is done, the leak stops. The stain dries. You can forget about it. No more buckets in the hall. No more worry every time it rains.
What people in Kenwood say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."
