Roofing cost in Arlington

Most leaks are not the field of the roof. They are penetrations and transitions - step flashing at walls, pipe boots, valleys, chimney counterflashing. A roof can look sound and still leak at a boot that has gone brittle.

A tear-off versus an overlay is not just cost. A second layer hides the decking, so soft sheathing stays buried, and it holds heat that shortens the new shingles' life.

Long cooling seasons and heavy summer rain drive the two problems we see most here: moisture getting into assemblies, and anything that traps it staying wet.
