At Lagunas Roofing, we pride ourselves on delivering top-notch solutions for all your roofing needs. Recently, we completed a project in Shiloh, IL, that presented us with a common challenge: a roof in desperate need of repair and consequential water damage to a garage wall.


The Challenge: Water Seepage Signs and Missing Shingles

Our team arrived at the site to find a roof showing signs of neglect, with shingles missing and signs of water seepage evident. Moreover, the adjacent garage wall suffered the brunt of this neglect, displaying clear signs of water damage.

Handling Roof Repair and Garage Water Damage


Here’s the outline of how we took care of the roof repair and water damage:

1. Thorough Inspection:

  • Roof Assessment: Our expert team examined the roof, inspecting every inch to assess the extent of damage. We checked for missing shingles, signs of water intrusion, and structural weaknesses.
  • Garage Area Examination: Simultaneously, we carefully analyzed the affected garage area, looking for visible signs of water damage such as discoloration, mold growth, and compromised structural integrity.
  • Use of Advanced Tools: Using cutting-edge tools and technology like infrared cameras and moisture meters, we detected hidden issues that might otherwise go unnoticed.


2. Roof Replacement:

  • Strategic Planning: Based on the inspection results, we developed a strategic plan tailored to address the specific needs of the roof. We considered factors such as material selection, structural reinforcements, and weather-resistant features.
  • Efficient Removal: Our skilled team started with removing the old roof, minimizing disruption to the surrounding property. We followed the industry's best practices and safety protocols throughout the removal process.
  • Quality Installation: Using our expertise and craftsmanship, we moved on to install a new, high-quality roof system designed to withstand the elements and provide lasting protection. We used top-grade materials and followed the manufacturer's specifications for optimal performance.
  • Attention to Detail: From sealing seams to securing flashing, we paid attention to detail at every stage of the installation process, ensuring a flawless finish and maximum durability.


3. Water Damage Repair:

  • Thorough Assessment: Before starting with the repairs, we thoroughly assessed the extent of water damage to the garage wall. This involved probing for moisture, assessing structural integrity, and identifying areas requiring immediate attention.
  • Specialized Remediation: Our team used specialized remediation techniques tailored to the specific type and severity of water damage. This included water extraction, drying, and dehumidification to mitigate further damage and prevent mold growth.
  • Structural Reinforcement: In cases where structural integrity was affected, we applied reinforcement measures to restore the wall's strength and stability. This involved replacing damaged materials, reinforcing support beams, and ensuring proper drainage to prevent future water intrusion.
  • Surface Restoration: With the structural repairs complete, we moved on to restore the surface of the garage wall to its pre-damage condition. This included patching, sanding, and painting to seamlessly blend the repaired area with the surrounding wall surface.
