Stop Leaks Before They Cause Damage

Roof repair services for residential and commercial properties in Merritt Island, Florida.

Your roof in Merritt Island takes direct hits from wind during storms, absorbs intense sun that breaks down sealants and fasteners, and deals with rain that finds every gap in flashing or worn shingle edges. A small leak around a vent pipe or missing shingles after a storm can quickly spread to the decking and framing, leading to stained ceilings, mold growth, and structural repairs that cost far more than the original fix.

Patriot Roofing and Construction LLC performs roof repairs for homes, commercial buildings, and multi-family properties throughout Merritt Island. The work includes inspecting the roof to locate the source of leaks, replacing damaged shingles or flashing, resealing exposed fasteners, and addressing any underlying issues like deteriorated underlayment or compromised decking. Each repair is intended to extend the life of your existing roof and prevent interior damage.

How repairs are identified and completed

When you schedule a repair in Merritt Island, the crew walks the roof to check for missing or lifted shingles, cracked flashing around chimneys and vents, and areas where water has pooled or stained the surface. Interior stains are traced back to their entry points, which are often several feet away from where water appears inside your home.

After the repair is finished, you will see no further water staining on ceilings or walls in the affected areas, and your roof will shed water properly during the next storm. Replaced shingles will match the existing color and pattern, and resealed flashing will sit flat against the surface without gaps.

The scope of the repair depends on how long the leak has been active and whether water has reached the decking or insulation. Minor repairs involve replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing, while more extensive leaks may require cutting out sections of decking and replacing underlayment. Repairs do not include full roof replacements or upgrades to ventilation systems, though those needs are noted if they are contributing to ongoing problems.

What homeowners and property managers usually ask

People often want to know how quickly repairs can be done, whether a repair will last until a full replacement is needed, and what signs indicate a roof is beyond repair.

What causes most roof leaks in Merritt Island?
Wind lifts shingle edges and backs out fasteners, allowing water to get under the surface during storms. Flashing around vents and chimneys also cracks or separates over time due to thermal expansion, creating entry points for rain.
How long does a roof repair take?
Most repairs are completed in a few hours to one day depending on the number of areas affected and whether decking needs to be replaced. Larger jobs involving multiple leaks or extensive water damage may take two to three days.
What should I do if I notice a leak during a storm?
Place a bucket under the leak to catch water, move valuables and electronics away from the area, and contact a roofer as soon as weather allows. Waiting until after the storm season increases the chance that additional leaks will develop.
Why do some repairs fail after a few months?
Repairs fail when the underlying problem is not addressed, such as damaged decking or inadequate flashing that was covered up rather than replaced. Inspections should identify these issues before work begins so the repair lasts.
When should I replace the roof instead of repairing it?
You should consider replacement if leaks are widespread, the roof is over 20 years old, or previous repairs have not held up. A roof with significant granule loss across most of the surface or visible sagging also indicates replacement is needed.
