Warrenton Roofing Repair & Leak Fix:
Looking for a roofer in Warrentn VA isn’t very challenging. You can ask a neighbor, search online, or use Facebook to help you find one. However, believe it or not, most roofing companies in Warrenton will typically only install new roofs.
Few companies have the expertise and patience to repair roof leaks or fix missing shingles. At Top Dog Home Pro, we specialize in roofing repairs, new roofs, and gutters. As you can see in the first photo below, this Warrenton roof had shingles that were missing and flapping in the wind:
Once we were on the roof conducting an inspection, we also noticed some irregular nailing patterns, as shown below. Nailing patterns are essential when installing new shingles because shingles are designed to overlap, so all nails must be covered. In the case of this Warrenton VA roof, some nails like this one were left exposed, which can cause small roof leaks:
Imagine a retaining wall not performing? You would act immediately. Sometimes, with roof repairs, we move slowly, but it is vital to address them quickly. After fully inspecting this roof, we concluded the following:
- The roof still had plenty of shingle life. Aside from the nail spots and missing shingles, the shingles were in great condition overall.
- The best course of action was to simply replace the missing shingles and cover the exposed nails by properly installing new shingles where needed.
- Keep reading below to see how this is done! ✔️
Roof Repair Warrenton – The Process:
Top Dog Home Pro is owned and operated by Luke Mitchell, who completes our roof inspections. Luke has been working with shingles and roofs for 20+ years and has learned from his father, an expert roofing owner in Northern Virginia, for several decades. We care about your property and your issues!
After the full inspection, the course of action to repair this particular Warrenton, VA, roof was to remove the damaged shingles and shingles where nails were exposed:
After removing the damaged shingles and making room to install new ones, Luke inspected the underlayment and plywood to ensure no water damage. Once this inspection was complete, Luke installed new shingles, ensuring they were correctly overlapped, nailed, and glued. While it is not required to glue or use a roofing cement, Top Dog Home Pro prefers to add this extra layer of protection when completing a roof repair.
As you can see in the photo above, after the roof repair was complete, the new shingles match the roof and look great! Now this homeowner doesn’t have to worry about any other roofing issues or roof leaks, which can develop if a problem is left unchecked for too long!

Look at our reviews, where customers rave about our honesty, transparency, and professionalism!
I checked out two other roofing companies. One of those companies said he didn't have to get up on the roof to give an estimate which struck me as odd. My roof had damage, so how could a roof inspector give me a true estimate of what it would cost. I didn't want to be surprised with a substantially higher bill than what the estimate was. The other company did inspect the roof and took pictures, but did not find all the damage that was there that I saw with my own two eyes.
When his team had finished the job, Luke sent me "finished" pictures. The before and after pictures were like a night and day difference. We downloaded the finished pictures & with the dates it shows when the roof was completed. The house we purchased "as is" took on a whole new appearance. The skylight that was installed really works great. On a clear night with a moon, the skylight takes available light and gently lights up the room enough to where you don't need a night light in the room. It's also great in the daytime, we really like how bright it can get.
The warranty is also great. We asked and Luke gave us some extra shingles in case one ever got damaged, but he reminded us of the warranty and to contact him if our roof had any issue or was damaged by falling debris, bad weather, etc. I should also add that after the job done, the clean up was completed and ground was clean and free of nails, etc.
Be sure to include Top Dog Home Pro when your shopping for roofing! You'll be glad you did.
Update*** We had all this work done in 2018, and just recently we had the handle break on our storm door due to freezing temperatures. I contacted Luke to see if he could give me the name of the company for the door that he installed so I could order a new handle. Not only did Luke order the handle for me, when it arrived he came over to my house and installed it for me. The service that this company provides is outstanding, and Luke helped me without hesitation and just took care of my problem. Please consider them for your next home project - they really are a 5 star company!!!
