Dependable roof repair specialists delivering quick inspections, precise fixes, and long-lasting protection built for every Midwest season.
Your roof does more than just shield your home from the weather, it plays a huge part in your comfort, safety, and energy efficiency. When you start noticing leaks, damaged shingles, or storm wear, putting it off can lead to bigger problems down the road. Acting fast with a trusted local roofer can save you stress, time, and money.
At Northstar Roofing, we’ve been helping homeowners throughout Moline, Rock Island, Davenport, Bettendorf, and the entire Quad Cities area for over 30 years. As a family-owned and bilingual company, we take pride in doing the job right, not fast. Every repair, no matter how small, is completed with care, precision, and respect for your home. From emergency leak fixes to full section restorations, we make roof repairs simple and dependable.
Every roof is unique, and so are its problems. Whether you’re dealing with loose shingles, sagging sections, or storm damage, our process keeps you informed and your property protected at every step.
Step 1: Thorough Roof Evaluation
We begin every job with a complete roof evaluation. Our experts inspect shingles, flashing, vents, and decking to identify both visible and hidden issues. Afterward, we’ll go over what we found and explain the best plan of action in plain language, so you know exactly what’s happening.
Step 2: Transparent Estimate
Once the inspection’s complete, we’ll provide an upfront estimate with clear pricing and no surprises. You’ll know what’s being fixed, how long it will take, and what materials we’ll use before we start.
Step 3: Skilled Roof Repair
Our licensed and insured roofers complete every repair to the highest standards. Whether it’s sealing leaks, fixing flashing, or replacing missing shingles, we use high-quality materials that blend perfectly with your existing roof.
Step 4: Final Inspection and Cleanup
After finishing the repairs, we perform a detailed walkthrough to ensure your roof is fully restored. Then we clean up every nail, scrap, and piece of debris, leaving your home neat and safe.
Some roofing problems are easy to spot, but others develop quietly until the damage becomes severe. If you see any of these warning signs, it’s time to schedule an inspection before things get worse.
Water Stains or Ceiling Leaks: Discolored patches or drips inside your home often mean your roof has developed leaks. Even small stains can lead to mold, rot, and damaged insulation.
Missing or Broken Shingles: If shingles are cracked, curled, or missing, your roof’s waterproof barrier has been compromised. Addressing it early prevents expensive structural repairs later.
Loose Granules in Gutters: Granules protect your shingles from UV rays. When they start washing into your gutters, it’s a clear sign of aging materials that need attention.
Sagging Roof Deck: A drooping roofline is a serious indicator of underlying structural damage. Immediate professional repair is needed to prevent potential collapse.
Moss or Algae Growth: Dark streaks or moss may look harmless, but they trap moisture that accelerates roof deterioration. Proper ventilation and cleaning can fix and prevent the issue.
Yes, it can. Many roof problems are confined to a small section and don’t require a full replacement. If your roof only has minor storm damage, a few missing shingles, or a small leak, we can perform a targeted repair that restores full protection without the cost of re-roofing.
At Northstar Roofing, we inspect every roof thoroughly to determine whether a partial repair or complete replacement is the smarter choice. We’ll always give honest recommendations that protect your investment, not upsells you don’t need.
In the Moline area, roof leaks and shingle damage are the most frequent repair calls we receive. Midwest storms and temperature swings can take a toll on asphalt shingles and flashing. Strong winds loosen edges, hail leaves dents, and constant freeze-thaw cycles cause cracks.
Our repair specialists handle all of it, whether it’s sealing flashing, replacing torn shingles, or repairing leaks around vents and chimneys. We use materials from top brands to make sure your repairs last and blend perfectly with your current roof.
The number one cause of roof leaks is damaged or deteriorated flashing. Flashing is the thin metal material that seals the joints and edges of your roof, places where water is most likely to sneak in, like around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys. When flashing starts to rust, crack, or pull away from the roof surface, rainwater finds an easy path underneath your shingles and into your home.
Over time, weather in Moline and the Quad Cities, especially heavy rain, strong winds, and freezing temperatures, can weaken these vulnerable areas. Once water gets beneath the roofing layers, it can travel far from the original leak, showing up as stains or drips inside your home.
At Northstar Roofing, we inspect flashing during every roof repair and replacement because it’s often the hidden culprit behind major leaks. Our team uses durable, weather-resistant materials and proven installation techniques to seal those problem spots tight. Whether it’s replacing old flashing or reinforcing weak seams, we make sure your roof stays watertight through every season.
