The writing comes from the same people doing the work in Surprise, AZ and the West Valley, which is why the numbers are specific and the advice sometimes tells you not to spend money.

  • Roof Replacement & Re-Roofing in SurpriseMost Surprise homes we look at do not need a new roof. They need a new drainage plane under concrete tile that still has thirty good years in it.
  • Roof Leak Detection & Repair in SurpriseOn a tile roof the leak is almost never above the stain. Water enters at a cracked ridge or a failed lap, runs sideways along a batten, then down the felt until it finds a nail hole.
  • Monsoon Storm Damage Restoration in SurpriseA Surprise storm arrives in a specific order: a wall of dust, then forty to sixty mile-per-hour outflow wind, then twenty minutes of rain heavy enough to overwhelm anything the first two broke. Each stage damages a tile roof differently.
  • Hail Damage Tile & Shingle Repair in SurprisePhoenix hail is infrequent and, when it comes, it behaves differently on tile than on shingle. Concrete tile does not bruise.
  • Wind & Uplift Damage Repair in SurpriseMonsoon outflow winds do not tear a Surprise tile roof off. They lift individual tiles at the edges, put them back down slightly out of position, and leave the felt beneath exposed.
