Call (973) 938-8387Note 01What is the cheapest way to repair a roof?
Fix the actual failure once, as early as possible. On a house built in levels that usually means renewing the step flashing at one wall line properly, with the siding lifted and reset, rather than running sealant along it and doing it again next season.
Note 02Can a repair at a wall line wait until spring?
Sometimes. A small, stable drip with the water caught can often be managed until the weather allows a proper repair. A wall line that leaks in every wind-driven rain usually cannot, because the water is running inside the wall where it does the most damage unseen.
Note 03What do I do if I can't afford to fix my roof?
Start with the smallest repair that stops the water. Ask for it to be priced on its own, not as part of a bigger job, and ask what can safely wait. Catching a leak early costs far less than the framing, insulation and ceiling it ruins if it runs.
