Shingles curling and losing granules?
Get a straight answer and a free roof inspection with photos in Ludlow, KY.
You see dark grit in the gutters every time you clean them. Shingle edges are curling up. You're not sure if the roof is failing or just looks old. Many homes in Ludlow's historic downtown area were built decades ago, and the Ohio River valley weather doesn't help.
Curling shingles and granule loss mean your roof is past the middle of its life. The granules protect the asphalt from the sun. When they wear off, the shingles dry out and curl. Once they curl, wind and rain can get under them. This leads to leaks. A few bad shingles is one thing. Widespread curling means the roof is telling you it is getting tired.
What this takes depends on what the inspection finds. Replacing a handful of shingles is a small job. If the damage is across the whole roof, you are looking at a full tear-off and replacement. The cost depends on the size of your roof and the materials you choose. An honest inspection with photos shows you exactly what you are dealing with. No guessing.
You need to know the truth before a small problem turns into a big one. Book a free roof inspection with TruRoof this week. We will get on your roof, take photos, and give you a written estimate. You will see the condition for yourself. Do not wait until you see water on the ceiling.
Once you know the facts, you can make a calm decision. Fix a few shingles now and budget for later. Or replace the roof and stop worrying. Either way, you will know what you have and what it will take to fix it.
What people in Ludlow 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."
Other things people in Ludlow ask
how much should a roof inspection cost
Our inspections are free and come with photos and a written report you keep, whether or not you hire us.
what does a roof inspection include
Shingles, flashing, penetrations, gutters, attic ventilation and decking, documented with photos.
why do i keep getting calls about roof inspections
Storm chasers follow hail maps. Use a local, licensed company that will still be here in five years.
attic wet after rain
Mark the wet area with tape. Check the roof directly above it for missing shingles, cracked flashing, or a bad pipe boot. Water travels downhill, so the entry point may be higher than the stain. Get a pro to trace it before it rots the decking.
how to choose a roofing contractor
Ask for a local address and a written estimate. Check that they have insurance and a license. Read reviews and ask for references. A good contractor will walk you through the job, not just hand you a number. Get at least three quotes before you decide.
