THE SHORT ANSWER
Why does a roof need maintenance?
Most leaks start small. Tile roofs drain water through valleys and flashing channels, and when those fill with debris, water gets under the tiles and wears out the underlayment. On shingle roofs, exposed nails, damaged shingles and worn rubber collars let water in. Fixing these early avoids major expenses later.
What roof maintenance includes
Tile roofs
Clearing valleys and flashing channels, resetting slipped tiles and replacing cracked or broken ones before water gets underneath.
Shingle roofs
Sealing exposed nails, replacing damaged shingles, sealing miter junctions and replacing rubber collars.
Flat roofs
Clearing debris, sealing cracks and unclogging drains so water flows off the roof.
How long does a tile roof last?
Most tile roof systems are rated for 50 years, but maintenance is key. The tiles last; the underlayment and flashing underneath need the channels kept clear to keep working.
What happens if valleys and flashing channels clog?
Debris dams up the water, so it runs under the tiles onto the underlayment. Over time that wears the underlayment out and causes leaks and dry rot inside and outside the home.
What warranty comes with maintenance repairs?
Most of our repairs come with a 2–10 year workmanship warranty, depending on the repair.

Roof maintenance FAQ
Is the inspection free?
Yes. We inspect, photograph what we find, and give you a written quote the same day.
Do you maintain tile and shingle roofs?
Yes — tile, asphalt shingle and flat roofs.
What is a rubber collar?
The seal around a pipe that comes through the roof. When it cracks, water runs down the pipe into the roof.
Can maintenance prevent a roof replacement?
Fixing problems early often avoids bigger repairs and helps your roof last its full life.
Do you offer commercial maintenance?
Yes — see Commercial Roof Maintenance.
Do you offer roof maintenance or valley cleaning?
Yes. We clean out valleys and unclog the channels that carry water off your roof. Clogged drainage is one of the most common reasons tile roofs leak, so regular cleaning is one of the cheapest ways to make your roof last longer.
Do you pressure wash roofs or remove moss?
No, we don't offer pressure washing or moss removal on tile or shingle roofs.
Do you keep birds and rodents out from under roof tiles?
For rodents and birds under the tiles, we recommend calling a pest control company. They're the experts at finding where animals get in and out.
How often should my roof be inspected?
Have a tile roof looked at by the time it’s about 10 years old. After that, get it checked after a big storm, after a leak, if something looks off, or regularly if you have a lot of trees, since leaves and debris clog the channels that carry water off the roof and push it back under the tiles.
