What to do right now (active leak)

Don’t climb on a wet or damaged roof. Put a bucket down, move valuables, and take a few photos from the ground (inside + outside). If water is near electrical fixtures, shut the power off to the affected area. Then call us so we can stabilize the leak and prevent further damage.

“Repair vs Replace”

Do you need a repair or a full replacement?

A lot of leaks can be repaired without replacing the whole roof—especially flashing issues, small shingle failures, or localized storm damage. If the roof is at the end of its life or the damage is widespread, we’ll tell you straight and walk you through replacement options. No pressure—just the right recommendation.

Roof Repair FAQs

How much does roof repair cost?

It depends on the cause and access. We’ll inspect, explain what we found, and give you a clear plan before work starts.

Can you fix a roof leak in the rain?

Sometimes we can stabilize it (tarping/temporary protection) and then complete the permanent repair when conditions are safe.

What’s the most common cause of roof leaks?

Flashing failures around chimneys/vents/skylights, damaged shingles, and ice dam-related issues are common in Maine. If the leak is around a skylight, see our skylight replacement and re-flashing page.

How quickly can you respond to an emergency?

For emergencies, we take calls 24/7, triage the situation, and give you an honest ETA based on conditions and safe access.

Will insurance cover roof repairs?

Sometimes—if it’s storm-related (wind/tree impact). Wear-and-tear usually isn’t covered. If it may apply, we can document the damage clearly.

Prefer a scheduled inspection?

Request an inspection, and we’ll get back to you (call now for emergencies).
