It is our passion and years of experience in solving issues like:
-
Condensation related leaks in steep roof systems
Ice dams are very much related to condensation problems. What causes ice dams? Temperature right under the roofing cover should be as close to outside temperature as possible. No excuses that building design does not allow having that. How can we accomplish that?
-
Siding installation with wall waterproofing
General approach: Siding is not designed to provide walls waterproofing, especially vinyl siding. Walls need to be waterproofed before siding is installed. Treat siding as a decoration only.
-
Windows and door installation with leak protection
Creating a leak protection above windows and doors is a part of wall waterproofing and preventing leaks from above. However another aspect is protecting walls from windows and doors leaking by themselves. This is typically accomplished by creating a secondary leak protections under windows and doors.
-
Optimizing gutter drainage system
Well optimized gutter drainage system may accomplish several things: diverting draining water from roof trouble area to area which can easier handle that water. This is a very custom approach, where are taken in consideration: roof shape and design, identified problem areas, ground pitches, protecting gutters and downspouts from clogging, preventing gutters and downspouts from freezing.

Low slopped roofing failures
Many things may go wrong with low slopped roof system and there is no “bullet proof solution”. There are many roof system components not necessary comparable with each other. There are many different ways of proceedings to accomplish the end result, as long as you are well aware of what the end results should be. Somebody's way of “covering” one issue may cause other to fail. Deep understanding and being aware of what may go wrong is a key to design low slopped roof assembly. Making sure that the project is done as it was designed is the other key to success.
