"Jessy came to inspect the job promptly. We made the appointment. A few days later my chimney was cleaned quickly and neatly by two very courteous A1 employees, and the price was right. I recommend A1 Professional Chimney and Roofing and would hire them again."

"This is the second time that Monarch Roofing has done work for me. I thought I might be ready for a new roof (many of the neighbors are replacing theirs) but they said that it just needed some repairs, which included a replacement attic vent, minor shingle repair, and some work on the chimney flashing. The entire project was completed within a few days. It was very easy to set up the inspection appointment, they came out on time, and then promptly got me on the schedule for the actual work. Easy, trouble free job, just as it was the first time. From my recent experience, Monarch Roofing can be counted on not to sell you a complete roofing job when a repair is all thatâ s needed. Their folks are highly professional and always willing to take the time to explain whatâ s needed, what they recommend, any alternatives, and what the cost will be."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Roof sheathing can buckle from moisture damage, too much weight from roofing materials, or too much space in between rafters without thicker sheathing to compensate for the added distance. Bucking roof sheathing is a serious problem that can lead to a collapsed roof, so have a qualified roofer near you come to identify the problem as soon as possible. 

If you see rust spots or streaks or any physical damage to the chimney cap from the ground, you should hire a professional to inspect and replace it. If it’s safe to get up on your roof or near your chimney cap with a ladder, you can perform a closer inspection to identify issues. Additionally, if you know your chimney cap is nearing the end of its life—usually five to ten years—or you’re seeing evidence of water damage or pest infestation in your chimney, it’s a good idea to replace the cap.

Patching a rubber roof requires finding a leak that is most likely identified by inspecting the attic. Get a strong flashlight and inspect the underside of the roof. Look for mold, wet spots, or dark, discolored areas. Check for degrading insulation, which tends to break down faster than wood. Inspect vents and seals and keep an eye out for small punctures coming through. The leak could actually be several feet away from where you find the water damage because of how water flows or gets diverted. In dry weather, spray the roof with a hose while someone else watches for leaks inside the attic. 

There should be small gaps between your roof and the walls of your home, and other buildings. These small gaps let building materials shift, expand, and contract with weather and other outside forces, and they prevent moisture from wicking down walls from roofing and gutter systems. Without these strategic gaps, your home’s exterior and its finishes can sustain water damage, decay, peel, delaminate, and crack. However, there is a fine line between a smart gap and a problematic gap—all  gaps should be small, intentional, and covered or filled in with foam insulation to prevent pests from using them as access points.

The most common defect in a flat roof is leaking. Flat roofs have minimal slope, so water pools more readily on a flat roof than on a sloped roof, and the risk of the waterproof membrane failing increases with exposure. Tears and punctures from foot traffic and blown debris are other common problems, especially with single-ply roofing membranes like TPO and EPDM roofs.
