Keeping Your Roof In The Best Condition

Think your roof is in need of a tune-up? Bears Valley Roofing offers a roof maintenance package to keep your roof looking like new. We will ensure that your roof is well-maintained. The tune-up is a great preventative maintenance service. As the roof ages and has been exposed to extreme weather, seals & caulking tend to dry and lose efficacy, shingle seals can start to lift and other materials may start to break down. We guarantee no leaks for two years.

Eligibility Requirements

The standard Bears Valley Roofing Tune-Up is a roof up to 3000 square fee and slopes up to 8:12 pitch. Before doing any work, we will let you know if your roof does not qualify as ‘standard’. Our inspector will give you a free, no-obligation estimate for a non-standard Roof Tune-Up. Should you decide to go ahead with the service, we will complete the tune-up at the new quoted price. If you choose not to have the tune-up done, we simply leave and there is no charge to you.

About the Tune-Up

The tune-up checks all seals, vents, flashings, skylights, identifies lifting shingles, popping nails and inspects for cracks and evidence of critter habitation. The service includes basic surface seals, replacing popped nails with roofing screws, etc. If the work required exceeds regular maintenance, the crew stops, provides a scope of work and estimate, and then waits for the client’s direction before proceeding any further.
