What Citrus Heights Roofs Actually Deal With

Four things stand out on roofs in Citrus Heights.

Wet Soil Can Bring Trees Down

The City of Citrus Heights hazard plan says saturated soil can bring trees down on structures. Ask a tree service about trees and limbs near your roof. After a storm, we check your shingles and flashing for damage.

Rain From November to February

In the rainy season, over half of the year's rain falls, says the National Weather Service. Loose shingles and tired flashing let that water into Citrus Heights attics. We trace each stain to its source. Then we seal it.

Old Layers Under the Top

Under the city's reroofing policy, an existing asphalt shingle roof can take only one overlay. A Citrus Heights roof may already hold a layer. A roofer has to see what is below. We check before we plan an overlay or a tear-off.

Heavy Roofing Materials

The city's policy says some heavy roofing, such as tile, may need a structural review before a permit is issued. That matters for homes planning to switch to tile. We talk through the weight of each material at your estimate.
