How often should I get a roof assessment in Lake Stevens, WA?

We recommend a thorough visual assessment from the ground or a ladder once a year, ideally in late summer before the fall rains. For a full, documented walkthrough of your entire property, a professional Home Health Assessment is best every 2-3 years.

What does a roof tune-up cost in Snohomish County?

A minor tune-up involving sealing flashing or replacing a handful of shingles typically falls within our minimum handyman visit, which starts at $580. The cost can go up depending on materials and the time required. We always provide a clear estimate before work begins.

Can you fix the roof problems you find?

Yes, we can perform many minor to moderate roof repairs ourselves, such as replacing shingles, sealing flashing, and addressing moss. For a full roof replacement, we coordinate with a trusted, licensed local roofing contractor to perform the work.

Is it safe to walk on my own roof?

Generally, no. We don't recommend it. Asphalt shingles can be slippery even when dry, and you can cause more damage by walking on brittle or sun-damaged shingles. Stay on the ground or a ladder and use binoculars if you have them.

What's the black stuff on my roof?

Those black streaks, especially on the north-facing side of your roof, are a type of algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It's mostly a cosmetic issue. The thick green fuzz is moss, which is much more destructive because it traps significant water and can lift shingles.
