ROOFING PROBLEMS

Shingles are constantly exposed to harsh external elements like high winds or snow removal work. They can crack, tear, or come loose. When that happens, the risk of water infiltration increases—especially on low-slope roofs or ridgelines.

No need to worry—Toiture 640 Inc. is here to repair or replace your damaged shingles.

Over time, the protective granules on shingles start to wear off. This can lead to fine cracks on the surface and granules accumulating in your gutters. Once that happens, your shingles lose protection.

You can count on Toiture 640 Inc. to resolve the issue.

Older roofs are more prone to moisture buildup in the attic, which affects the underside of the shingles. As a result, the tabs begin to curl and lift, making them more vulnerable to wind and ice.

Toiture 640 Inc. is the company to call when you notice this problem. We’ll take care of the repairs or replacements as needed.

Shingles aren’t built to last forever. Over time, the lower edge of each tab begins to curl upward. That exposed area becomes more vulnerable to weather conditions like wind, hail, and ice.

When this happens, it’s time for a repair or full replacement—and Toiture 640 Inc. is the team to trust.

Poor attic ventilation or substandard underlayment thickness can cause the roof deck to deform over time. This leads to visible warping in the shingles. The tabs then become prone to wind damage and may tear off.

If you notice this issue, we recommend contacting Toiture 640 Inc. to carry out the necessary corrective work.

Some areas of your roof receive less direct sunlight and retain more moisture. This can promote the growth of algae, often mistaken for dirt or moss. While more visible on light-coloured shingles, it can also affect darker tones.

Algae eventually cause discolouration, though they don’t compromise the integrity of the shingles. It’s primarily a visual issue. There are solutions to reduce and prevent the staining, including algae-resistant shingles you can request when replacing your roof.

Important

Cleaning the shingles is only a temporary fix. Algae will return as long as they remain subject to moisture and shade. And cleaning must be done carefully to avoid removing too many protective granules.

Cracked flashing, dried-out sealant, or damaged shingles can all cause issues around roof flashings—whether around vents, plumbing stacks, or chimneys. It’s important to inspect these areas to prevent further complications.

Toiture 640 Inc. is here to help with any flashing-related repairs.
