Found a water mark on the ceiling or shingles in the yard after a storm? We track down where the water is actually getting in (it is rarely right below the mark) and fix it so it stops.
Most roof leaks in Bellingham are not where the ceiling water mark shows up. Water runs along the deck and the framing before it drips, so a real repair starts with finding the actual entry point: a cracked pipe-vent boot, failed step flashing at a wall, a nail pop, a lifted shingle, or a valley that has given up. We chase it down and fix the cause, not just the symptom, often in a single visit.
Wind-driven rain off the water and atmospheric-river weekends are what drive most of our repair calls. Lifted, missing, or under-nailed shingles leak fast in those events. If the roof has life left, a repair is the honest answer and we will tell you so. If the roof is at the end and the leaks are stacking up, we will say that too, and show you why on your own roof.

Frequently asked questions.
How much does roof repair cost in Bellingham?
Most roof repairs in Bellingham run $450 to $2,500 depending on what failed and how reachable it is. A single pipe-vent boot or a small flashing fix is at the low end; a valley rebuild or a repair with soft decking underneath runs higher. We give you the number before we start.
Can you fix a roof leak in one visit?
Often, yes. Once we find the actual entry point, most flashing, vent-boot, and shingle-field repairs are done the same day. If the leak turns out to be coming from rotted decking or a roof at the end of its life, we will show you and talk through the options before doing more.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
If the roof has life left and the leak is isolated, a repair is the honest, cheaper answer and we are glad to do it. If the leaks are stacking up, the shingles are curling and shedding granules, or there are already two old layers, repairs become throwing money at a dying roof. We tell you which one you are looking at.
