About this service

Roofing tar is a thick, black, adhesive substance used to seal small cracks, patch around chimneys, or secure flashing. It acts as a quick, temporary fix for active leaks or as a sealant for vulnerable joints. While it is useful for minor maintenance, it is not a long-term solution for large-scale damage. If you find yourself using tar frequently in the same spots, it is usually a sign that your roof system needs a more permanent repair or professional inspection.

The warmth helps the adhesive strips on new shingles activate quickly, providing an immediate bond. We prioritize crew safety and hydration during hot afternoons to maintain high-quality workmanship from start to finish. Licensed, insured pros serve your area — call now for a free estimate.
