Local Roofers for The Lakes, Lacey

Hicks Lake, Pattison Lake, Long Lake. Three lakes worth of humidity, and every roof in this neighborhood feels it. Most of the homes in this area went up during a housing boom that ran from the mid-1980s through the late 1990s.

That puts a lot of these roofs at twenty-five to forty years old now.

Old enough that plenty of homeowners are on their second roof, or getting close to it.

Call (360) 915-9116 for a free inspection.

A Recent Reroof: New Decking After Years of Leaks

United Roofing Solutions handled a full reroof on an older home in this area, and it wasn't a simple shingle swap. Years of slow leaks had rotted sections of the plywood decking underneath, the kind of damage that shows up only once the old roof comes off.

The crew tore everything down to bare framing. Replaced every section of compromised decking. Rebuilt from there before a single new shingle went down.

That's the difference between covering up a problem and actually fixing it. Older homes near the lakes see this more than most. Call (360) 915-9116 if your roof's had a slow leak for a while. It might already be past the shingles.

From Lakeside Resorts to a Lacey Neighborhood

Long before this was a neighborhood, it was a vacation destination. Frank Mullen opened a resort on Pattison Lake just after 1910. Gwinwood, an eighteen-room lakeside mansion on Hicks Lake, was one of roughly twenty resorts that drew visitors here through the 1920s. Those cabins are long gone now. What replaced them, starting in the mid-1980s, was a real housing boom, and it built most of the homes standing here today.

Complex Rooflines on Homes Built Near the Water

A lot of homes from that era around The Lakes aren't simple single-plane roofs. Split-level and tri-level designs were popular throughout this neighborhood, and those come with more roof, not less. Multiple planes. Valleys where two sections meet. Steeper pitches in some spots, long shallow runs in others. Every one of those transitions is a place water can find a way in if the flashing isn't right. United Roofing Solutions treats valley and flashing work as its own step on every reroof here, not an afterthought.

What These Roofs Usually Need

A lot of these older roofs start with a roof inspection, especially once a slow leak shows up the way it did on the reroof above.

From there, roofs from the original housing boom that are now into their second or third decade are usually looking at a full roof replacement.

For a slower leak or storm damage that hasn't reached the decking yet, our roof repair team can usually handle it without a full tear-off.

And with three lakes' worth of humidity working against these roofs year-round, ongoing roof maintenance catches moss and debris buildup before it becomes a bigger problem.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing Near The Lakes in Lacey, WA

How do I know if my roof has decking damage, not just a leak?

Yes, if a leak has been going on for a while, decking damage is a real possibility, and United Roofing Solutions checks for it on every inspection near The Lakes. Soft spots, sagging, or a slight dip in the roofline are usually the giveaway from the outside. Call (360) 915-9116 for a free inspection to find out what's actually underneath.

My home has a split-level or tri-level roof. Does that change the job?

Yes, more roof planes and valleys mean more places for water to get in, so United Roofing Solutions pays extra attention to flashing and valley work on these roofs. It's not necessarily a bigger job, just a more detailed one. Call (360) 915-9116 for a free inspection and an honest look at what your roofline actually needs.

Why does my roof near the lake get so much moss?

Humidity off Hicks, Pattison, and Long lakes keeps roofs damp longer than homes further from the water, and that's exactly what moss needs to take hold. United Roofing Solutions treats moss removal as routine maintenance in this area rather than waiting for it to become a bigger repair. Call (360) 915-9116 to get a maintenance visit scheduled.
