Roof Challenge
Mr. Garcia’s had a built up gravel roof in Los Ranchos, NM that he expected to be a candidate for replacement. A RoofCARE Technical Advisor found that most of the issues were actually around the perimeter, penetrations, and swamp cooler. The roof had not been maintained for many years resulting in wind scour (gravel had moved and left bald spots) and rotted deck that had been deteriorating around the swamp cooler.
Roofing Materials Used
- Asphalt 3 course with plastic cement and reinforcement ribbon.
- Finished with aluminum coating.
Roofing Solution
RoofCARE provided Mr. Garcia with corrective repairs at the Los Ranchos home that saved his roof from replacement. The team installed a new roof jack and new decking around his swamp cooler. A 5 year SmartCARE maintenance plan was activated to prevent future roof damage, leaks, and protect the roof from the large trees surrounding the home.
