Roofing in Ocean Park, South Surrey

For homes beneath the tall firs between 128th and 16th, the greatest threat to the roof is rarely the rain itself. It is the layer of needles that collects in the valleys and holds water, and the moss that gradually lifts shingle tabs from beneath.

Moss on an asphalt roof beneath mature coastal trees

Our crew is based in South Surrey, so Ocean Park assessments can be scheduled promptly. Rodrigo or one of our lead roofers inspects the roof in person, checks attic ventilation from the inside, and gives you a clear account of its condition. No salesperson is involved.

What we find on Ocean Park roofs

A lot of Ocean Park roofs are 1980s and 90s cedar shake on skip sheathing, plus heavy architectural asphalt on the newer custom builds. These roofs often have big multi-gable layouts, long valleys, skylights and chimneys, which are common places for leaks to start.

What usually goes wrong here

Needle and moss mats damming the valleys and holding standing water
Cedar shake at 30-plus years, curling and splitting at the butts
Wind-driven rain off Boundary Bay pushing water back under the shingles
Chimney and skylight flashings that were caulked instead of properly reflashed
Plugged gutters spilling behind the fascia and rotting the board

The straight answer

If a valley cleanout and proper reflashing will give the roof another five years, we will recommend that. It is a few hundred dollars, not a replacement. If the cedar has reached the end of its life, we will show you photographs from the roof and provide a complete written scope, so the price you approve is the price you pay.

Thinking about an upgrade?

If you're replacing tired cedar and want the look without the rot, we install Brava composite shake, slate and tile, along with heavy architectural asphalt and standing-seam metal.
