Why We Don't Perform Roof Repairs
Long-Lasting Solutions, Not Patch Jobs
At Mark Anthony Construction & Roofing, we understand that hearing you need a full replacement when you only wanted a repair can be surprising.
However, when considering roof repair vs roof replacement, our policy is rooted in honesty and quality. We have found that roof repairs on aging systems frequently fail, leading to wasted money and continued frustration for the homeowner.
- The Problem with Repairs
Old underlayment often crumbles when disturbed.
Patching one leak doesn’t fix the surrounding aging area.
Color matching old tiles/shingles is nearly impossible.
Insurance won’t cover roof repair in many non-renewal cases.
- The Value of Replacement
Complete peace of mind with watertight integrity.
Brand new underlayment and flashing throughout.
Access to GAF Golden Pledge 50-year warranties.
Increases home resale value immediately.
