Roofing in Flushing, MI
Flushing is west of Flint along Flushing Road. We come out to look at roofs in the city and the township.
Roofs in Flushing
The Flint River runs right through downtown Flushing, and many of the streets nearby are lined with big, mature trees. That shade is part of what makes the town feel the way it does, and it also changes how a roof wears.
A roof under heavy tree cover stays damp longer after rain, collects leaves and twigs in its valleys and gutters, and is in the line of fire when a limb comes down in a storm.
Trees and Roofs in Flushing
Debris in Valleys
Leaves and needles pile up where two roof slopes meet. Wet debris holds water against the shingles and can push it sideways under them.
Moss and Dark Streaks
Shaded north-facing slopes can grow moss or dark streaks. Moss lifts shingle edges as it grows and holds moisture against the roof.
Limb Damage
After a storm, a fallen branch can crack shingles or punch through the deck even if it rolled off. If a limb hit your roof, have it looked at.
Trimming Before a New Roof
If branches hang over or touch your roof, it is worth having them trimmed back by a tree service before a new roof goes on. We will point out the branches that concern us during the visit.
If a branch came down on your roof, our storm damage page is the place to start. Moss, worn spots and drips fall under repairs, and tired roofs under replacement.
