Payne & Sons Roof Repair and Replacement Protects Phoenix Valley Homes With Monsoon Storm Damage

Aug. 4, 2010 - PRLog -- No stranger to sudden bursts of lighting, high speed winds and damaged roof tops, Steven Payne, founder of Payne & Sons Roofing, experts in roof repairs and roof replacements for over 25 years, was again prepared for the flurry of calls to his company with this year’s monsoon season.

Payne founded his family-owned company with a commitment to quality for customer satisfaction that is unsurpassed.  That customer satisfaction, based on years of integrity, expert roofing skills and an in depth knowledge of specialty roofing work that comes with homes in the Phoenix area, is what makes his phone ring year round – but even more so during monsoon time.

Payne recently shared “When the storms hit here in Phoenix, we get a flood of calls. People sometimes are surprised when they see water leaking inside their home from the roof when the roof looks, to the untrained eye, to have no damage.  It’s an interesting thing that happens here.

Twenty years ago, when tile roofs were really understood to be superior for overall protection from the Arizona elements, roofers used the high tech tools and products at that time.  What we’ve come to learn is that the heat of the Arizona sun during the dry months has been slowly deteriorating the felt that is underneath the tiles. When this felt is gone, so is your protection from water damage when it rains.”

During the monsoon, or summer thunderstorm season, Arizona experiences more severe weather than many other states. On rare occasion, a severe storm may spawn a tornado. More often, high winds, dust and severe downpours resulting in flash floods are common monsoon occurrences.

Serious damage can occur from high winds, or from debris being tossed by those high winds. It is not unusual for trees to be downed, power lines to be damaged, and roof damage to occur. As you might imagine, homes that are not as sturdy, like some manufactured homes, are more susceptible to wind damage.

He continues “Very few people get up on their roofs. When they do, they may not notice the cracks in the tiles, missing or broken pieces, or even spots that previous years of monsoon rain and winds have weakened.  To most people, their roofs are fine.

We get very busy this time of year and are always prepared with extra crew members to handle the calls that come in from local home owners.  

Today’s home owners are smart.  Many times, after all research of roofing contractors is complete, the homeowner realizes that the lowest-bid contractor actually provides the lowest value. After considering the liability and risk associated with uninsured and unlicensed contractors, the vast majority of homeowners will move toward companies that are properly capitalized and properly run to have their work done.  

Our reputation for expert knowledge, skill set, ethics and communication for tile roof and traditional shingle roof repairs and replacements precedes us. We’ve been up on the roofs a lot during this season and expect to take care of more of the homes in the valley area.”
