How do I know if it is a repair or a replacement?

It hinges on the roof's age and how widespread the damage is. Isolated damage on a sound roof is a repair; an older roof leaking in multiple spots usually calls for replacement. Our free inspection gives you a written answer.

Do you charge for the inspection?

No. The inspection and written estimate are free, with no trip charge. You decide once you have seen the scope.

Can you repair roofs on the hills and steeper lots?

Yes. We use drone imaging and proper access equipment to inspect and repair steep and hard-to-reach roofs safely across the Ithaca area.

Can you repair in the winter?

Yes. Wet Finger Lakes winters are when many leaks appear, and we repair year-round, sealing the work area so the fix holds through the freeze-thaw cycles.

Protect Your Space With Comprehensive Roof Repair Services

Wet winters, steady rain, and heavy hillside snow keep local roofs under constant stress. A worn shingle or open flashing gives moisture a way in, and the freeze-thaw swing drives it deep into the decking long before any stain reaches the ceiling. Tracking down these hidden leaks is our specialty. Providing expert Ithaca roof repair since 2008, Stellar Roofing knows exactly how to fortify homes against the gorge weather. In addition to affordable prices and convenient service windows, we offer our clients the benefit of complete local mastery backed by 10+ years of experience. Contact us at (585) 213-2661 to request your free estimate.

Why Ithaca Homeowners Trust Our Roof Repairs

A leak that returns is often a sign that the original source was never fully identified. We trace the water to its true entry point, find the failure responsible, and repair the cause rather than the stain it left behind. We also select materials suited to Finger Lakes conditions, with ENERGY STAR’s guidance on cool roofing in mind when roof material performance is relevant to the project.

Common Roof Repair Problems We Solve in Ithaca

Roof trouble in Ithaca typically traces back to a few common weak spots. Here are the problems we run into most frequently in the field and how we resolve them.

In a wet climate, trapped attic moisture and a hidden leak often feed each other. We find the water’s entry, repair it, and address the ventilation that let condensation build.

Snow-covered roofs above the gorges build ice dams that push meltwater back under the shingles. We repair the damage and correct the sealing and airflow behind it.

Wind across the hills tears shingles loose and cracks the ones that stay. We replace the damaged sections and reseal so the roof sheds the next downpour.

Stellar Roofing Provides Roof Repair Services You Can Trust

Ithaca homeowners rely on us because we fix what actually caused the leak rather than the symptom on the ceiling. Every repair is sealed for the next freeze and backed by workmanship we stand behind season after season.

How do I know if it is a repair or a replacement? It hinges on the roof’s age and how widespread the damage is. Isolated damage on a sound roof is a repair; an older roof leaking in multiple spots usually calls for replacement. Our free inspection gives you a written answer.
Do you charge for the inspection? No. The inspection and written estimate are free, with no trip charge. You decide once you have seen the scope.
Can you repair roofs on the hills and steeper lots? Yes. We use drone imaging and proper access equipment to inspect and repair steep and hard-to-reach roofs safely across the Ithaca area.
Can you repair in the winter? Yes. Wet Finger Lakes winters are when many leaks appear, and we repair year-round, sealing the work area so the fix holds through the freeze-thaw cycles.

When a roof has run its course, our roof installation team can plan a full replacement. Many homeowners couple this service with roof ventilation and, in winter, ice dam removal. Call (585) 213-2661 to schedule.

Roof issues often stay hidden until extensive damage is done. Watch for water stains creeping across ceilings or walls, shingles that are curled or missing, granule loss in the gutters, and daylight showing through the attic. Any of these signs warrants a look before the next stretch of severe weather.

Every day you let a leak sit, you risk extensive damage to your roof and siding. Don’t leave your home’s infrastructure to chance. Stellar Roofing is fully licensed and insured, BBB A+ accredited, and backs repairs with an industry-leading transferable warranty on materials and labor. Schedule your free estimate at (585) 213-2661 or request one online.
