Other Services

Repairs

Due to the nature of most roof repairs, work is necessary to begin to understand the cause of the problem. Because of this, all repairs have a $45.00 diagnostic fee and a 2 hour minimum and / or $60.00 per man, per hour plus the expense of the materials used. Included in the charged time is the travel-time to pick up the necessary materials needed to perform the repair.

If a repair job can be accurately estimated at the time of diagnosis, we will offer a fixed bid for the repair.

Rain Gutters

Quite often during re-roofing, the dimension of a new roof changes (shrinks), making the existing rain gutter fit poorly. This is typical with hipped roofs or older houses that have cedar shingles or a cedar shingle starter course. We recommend when re-roofing, to replace the rain gutter with your new roof. If this cannot be done, some considerations are offered.

Occasionally, existing rain gutters can be retrofitted to work with a new roof. In this situation, a rain gutter is re-hung as the work progresses. Sometimes a gutter contractor may be required to perform this work. In most cases when retrofitting an old rain gutter, some cosmetic damage does occur. Completely removing and re-installing an existing rain gutter usually results in inevitable damage and repair may be required at an additional cost. If the choice is made for new rain gutters, Shaw Roofing can help to coordinate with the installation.

It is recommended on some re-roofing installations, such as those with existing crown molding, that the installation of rain gutters happen after a roof is dried in but prior to the installation of the roofing material. This enables the new roofing to be installed so that it hides the gutter straps that nail onto the roof surface. These small extra steps help to ensure that you have a roof that is esthetically pleasing.

Rain gutter on houses with vertical fascia can be installed using spikes and can typically and preferably be installed after the re-roofing work is complete.

Heat Cable

Heat cable is a good idea to prohibit potential damage from ice damming.

RayChem: Self regulating heat cable available in residential and commercial grades.
Note: Some hardwiring by a licensed contractor may be necessary.

Siding

It is preferred when dealing with existing wood cedar shingles, wood, vinyl and aluminum siding, etc., to have all metal step and 4X4 L-flashing installed behind siding so that the siding acts as a counter flashing. In some cases, flashing can be surface mounted. Advice will be given depending on the circumstances.
