Keeping Roofs In One Piece on the Coast
A home off Matunuck Road deals with much different roofing conditions than a home out near the University of Rhode Island (go Rams!). Roof repairs and installations (and most exterior work, really) should reflect that big difference. JP Carroll has been the top roofer in South Kingstown, RI since ‘87, and we’ve patched roofs, replaced them, installed vinyl siding, and much more for homes all up and down the coast as well as far inland.
Roofing for Homes
It’s not uncommon for a tiny problem you shrug off to totally transform within days or weeks. Here are our services to make sure you can bounce back from them.
Roof Repair
Here’s when you need roof repairs.
- Shingles torn off by coastal winds
- Flashing failures at chimneys & skylights
- Corroded vents
- Ice dams in winter
- Leaks, especially after Nor’easters & any tropical storms
Roof Replacement
Sometimes the elements and old age catch up with your roof. Some classic signs that it’s time for a roof replacement in South Kingstown are that your roof is over 20 years old, shingles keep blowing off, granules are wearing away (and you’re seeing them in your downspout/gutters), flashing is rusting, or leaks keep on coming back.
The JP Carroll team does a full tear-off, adds a water shield at eaves and valleys, adds a synthetic layer, and installs brand new shingles (architectural shingles, slate, flat, etc.).
Roof Inspections
The weather here alone is reason enough to schedule a roof inspection in fall before winter and spring for an after-storm check.
Gutters, Siding, and Windows
Why stop at roof work? JP Carroll extends its services to nearly everything exterior. We install seamless gutters, both aluminum and copper, to help historic and/or coastal homes increase their durability, as well as gutter guards to keep those wooded homes free of clogged gutters. We install vinyl siding on homes to help hold up against the salt air on the coast and all the UV rays that come with it. With windows, we do energy-efficient replacements that will help seal out the wind and overall cut costs.
