In a recent project, we were called to assist a homeowner dealing with a persistent and troubling issue: rodents entering the attic. The homeowner had noticed signs of unwanted guests, and it became clear that gaps in the roof’s flashing were providing easy access points for these critters. Our team at Shepherd Roofing & Renovations stepped in to address the problem with a comprehensive roof repair.
To effectively seal the roof and prevent further rodent intrusion, we installed new flashing in 25 areas across the roof. Flashing plays a crucial role in sealing joints and preventing water—and in this case, rodents—from finding their way into the home. By strategically placing the flashing, we were able to close off potential entry points that the rodents had been using.
Additionally, we re-fastened the head wall flashing along the standing seam metal roof. This step was essential in ensuring a secure and tight seal, particularly in areas that might have been overlooked during previous repairs or installations.
With the new flashing securely in place, the homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind knowing that their attic is protected from further rodent invasions. Our thorough approach ensures that the roof is not only sealed against pests but also fortified against potential water leaks.
