Shingles curling and losing granules? Here's what to do.
Free roof inspection and honest answers for Madeira, OH homeowners. No pressure, just photos and a written estimate.
You live in Madeira, where rolling hills and Ohio weather put every roof to the test. Shingles are curling at the edges, and dark grit keeps showing up in your gutters. You're not sure if it's a small fix or the beginning of a big problem.
Curling happens when the asphalt in your shingles gets brittle from years of sun, heat, and cold. The edges lift up. Granules are the sandy coating that protects the asphalt. When you find them in the gutter, it means the shingle is wearing down and losing its shield. Water can start sneaking underneath.
Cost depends on how many shingles are bad. If it's just a few along one edge, a spot repair can be a few hundred dollars. If curling and granule loss cover most of the roof, you are looking at a full replacement. That can run several thousand, but getting ahead of it stops leaks that damage plywood and insulation.
Don't guess and don't ignore it. Call TruRoof for a free inspection. A real person will show up, take clear photos, and hand you a written estimate. You'll see exactly which shingles are failing and what needs to happen now versus later. No pressure, just facts.
You'll know the truth about your roof. If it's a quick fix, you can handle it and relax. If you need to plan for a replacement, you'll have numbers and a timeline. No more worrying every time the wind blows.
What people in Madeira 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 Madeira 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.
