Roof Repair
Targeted repairs for leaks, damaged flashing, and worn roofing materials. We diagnose the source of the problem and make focused repairs to extend the life of your existing roof.
What this service includes
Roof repair is the targeted fixing of a specific problem on an otherwise sound roof. Instead of replacing the whole system, a repair addresses the spot where water is getting in, where flashing has failed, or where a section of material has worn out. Done well, a repair buys years of service from a roof that still has life left in it.
In Fort Lauderdale and Broward County, most roof repairs trace back to the same forces: sun that dries out sealants, humidity that keeps everything damp, and storm-season wind that lifts edges and drives rain under flashing. A leak that shows up inside the house often started small, at a vent pipe, a valley, a chimney, or a seam where two materials meet. Finding the actual entry point, not just the visible stain, is what makes a repair hold.
Roof repair performed by a Florida Certified Roofing Contractor means the work meets Florida Building Code standards and is done with materials compatible with your existing roof. As a Polyglass certified contractor, CIT Repair & Remodeling uses proven repair materials and methods for low-slope and shingle systems. The business is woman-owned and owner-operated, so the licensed contractor is involved in diagnosing the problem and scoping the fix.
A repair starts with finding the source. That usually means an on-roof or attic inspection to trace where water is entering, because the stain on your ceiling is rarely directly below the actual leak. Once the source is found, the repair is scoped to fix that area and any related weak points nearby. Broward County permitting rules apply to some repairs depending on scope, and a licensed contractor knows when a permit is required.
Signs you may need this service
- A water stain on the ceiling or a damp spot on an interior wall, especially after a heavy storm.
- Missing, cracked, or lifted shingles, or membrane that is peeling at an edge or seam.
- Flashing around a vent, skylight, chimney, or valley that is loose, corroded, or pulling away.
- Granules washing off shingles and collecting in gutters, leaving bare patches behind.
- A roof that is generally in fair condition but has one or two problem areas that keep returning.
How this work is done
This describes how roof repair generally proceeds in the trade, so you know what to expect.
- 1
Leak diagnosis
The roof and, when needed, the attic are inspected to trace the actual entry point of the water. The visible stain inside is rarely directly below the source, so the diagnosis focuses on finding where water is really getting in.
- 2
Scope the repair
Once the source is found, the repair is scoped to fix that area and any nearby weak points that could fail next. The goal is a fix that lasts, not a patch that hides the problem.
- 3
Permitting when required
Depending on the scope, Broward County may require a permit for the repair. A licensed contractor determines when a permit applies and pulls it before work begins.
- 4
Repair and seal
Damaged materials are removed and replaced with compatible products. Flashing is re-secured or replaced, and seams and penetrations are sealed to stop water entry.
- 5
Review
The completed repair is reviewed with the homeowner, including what was found, what was fixed, and whether the rest of the roof has other areas to watch.
