North Dakota's climate is harsh on roofs. Severe winters with deep snow and ice can cause significant stress. Ice dams can form, forcing water under shingles and causing damage. The short, hot summers can lead to expansion and contraction of roofing materials. This cycle can create cracks and weaknesses. Roofing tar can be effective for sealing small holes or cracks. It offers a quick way to prevent further water intrusion. We can assess if tar is the right temporary fix for your roof.
