Montrose & River Oaks Roof Care, Historic Preservation & High-End Systems

You don't need to throw away thousands of dollars in historic tile. Through our specialized Tile Roofing repair process, our artisans execute a precise "lift-and-relay." We carefully number and salvage intact historic tiles, strip out the brittle dry felt down to solid deck framing, install dual layers of puncture-resistant high-temp synthetic underlayment, and re-hang your original tile with non-corrosive copper fasteners for another 30+ years of watertight protection.

Smearing roof cement into an old soldered metal seam is guaranteed to fail in the summer sun. We cut away rotted wood trim, repair damaged rafter tails through our Fascia & Soffit Roof Repair carpentry team, and custom-bend heavy 16-oz cold-rolled copper or heavy-gauge fluoropolymer-coated metal liners. For stubborn low-slope transitions, we integrate single-ply membranes via our Flat & Low-Slope Roofing systems, carrying the waterproof barrier 18 inches up the rafter slope so backed-up water can never spill into the house.

We avoid sloppy surface caulk that ruins historic masonry aesthetics. Our craftsmen grind out deteriorated mortar joints along the brickwork and install custom-fabricated copper or lead-coated stepped counter-flashings through our dedicated Chimney Flashing & Repair method. We secure the metal mechanical joints into saw-cut reglet grooves and repoint with period-appropriate mortar, creating a watertight joint that sheds storm runoff cleanly.

Through our dedicated Metal Roofing service, we rebuild faulty transitions using concealed-fastener, double-lock standing seam techniques that allow metal to expand and contract without warping. Where metal planes meet flat parapet walls, we flash the transition with heat-welded commercial membrane via our TPO Roofing protocols to create a bombproof barrier against zero-lot-line storm winds.
