Lifted and missing tabs
Wind gets under a tab, breaks the seal strip and lifts a course. Caught early it is a handful of shingles. Left a season, water has been running under the course all winter.
Roof Repair in Lindenwold, NJ
Plenty of roofs come off years early. Where the covering either side of a fault is still sound, a repair is the honest answer, and the pictures are the only way to tell which of the two you have.

The short version
The honest version of this page is that a repair is often the correct answer and is almost never the answer a homeowner is given. We would rather take a two-hour job now and be the people you call in six years than talk you into a replacement you did not need. The survey photographs decide it, not a sales target.
What is covered
What the job covers
Flashing and valley work
Where two planes meet, or where the roof meets a wall or a chimney, is where most leaks actually live. Metal there fails long before the covering around it does.
Pipe boots
Rubber perishes. A boot that has split at the collar is one of the most common leaks we photograph and one of the quickest to put right.
Storm-lifted ridges
Ridge caps take the worst of the wind on an exposed slope. Replacing a run of them is a short job that prevents a long one.
Worth knowing
When we will tell you to replace instead
When the covering is at the end of its life across the whole roof, when a previous layover means there is no sound surface to tie a repair into, or when the decking under the problem has already gone soft. In each case you get the photographs that show why, so the recommendation is checkable rather than asserted.
