Who We Are

Built By Roofers Who Actually Work In Cortland

Before Roof Repair Smedway was a name on a truck, our foremen were already up on ladders across Cortland, NY, figuring out which shingle brands actually hold their seal through a rough season and which ones just look good in a showroom.

Every lead technician we send to a Cortland property carries current Cortland, NY licensing and full insurance, and we'll produce that paperwork before you ask twice.

Every Roofing job, from a single flashing repair to a full Cortland tear-off, gets built to the same standard: the one that holds up, not the one that's fastest to invoice.

Early Warning Signs

What A Failing Roof Looks Like Before The Leak

A roof rarely just fails one day — it usually spends months quietly showing signs that get written off as cosmetic.

Homeowners in Cortland often mention they'd noticed something off months before calling — a stain that seemed to fade, a shingle that looked slightly out of place after a storm.

Sandy Runoff After Rain

Heavy granule loss usually means the shingles are nearing the end of their service life.

Curling Shingle Edges

Shingles that curl at the edges have lost flexibility and are more likely to crack in the next windstorm.

Pinholes In The Roof Deck

Pinpricks of light in the attic are an early, fixable version of what becomes a leak later.

Brown Water Stains Overhead

A spreading brown ring on a ceiling almost always means water is tracking in from somewhere on the roof.

Uneven Indoor Temperatures

A slow leak or failing ventilation can quietly drive up cooling costs before you notice the leak itself.

Bare Patches After A Storm

Exposed underlayment is only a temporary barrier — it's not built to handle sustained exposure.

Core Services

Every Roofing Job We Handle In Cortland

Not every call needs the same fix, so we scope each Cortland job individually instead of running everything through one generic quote.

Below is the full breakdown of what we cover in Cortland, so you can see roughly where your situation fits before you even call.

Emergency

Same-Day Emergency Tarping

Downed branches, torn flashing, and wind-lifted shingles all fall under our emergency response scope.

Residential

Homeowner Roof Solutions

Every homeowner gets walked through material options before a decision is made, not after.

Commercial

Commercial Roof Maintenance

We schedule commercial jobs to minimize disruption to tenants and foot traffic wherever possible.

Replacement

Full Roof Replacement

A full tear-off strips the roof to the decking, replaces any damaged boards, and rebuilds with new underlayment and shingles to current code.

Inspection

Preventive Roof Checkups

A proper inspection checks flashing, fasteners, ventilation, and granule wear before small issues become leaks.

Specialized

Chimney, Skylight & Flashing Repair

Chimney crickets, skylight seals, and valley flashing are common leak points that general repair crews often miss.

Four Steps From Your Call To A Finished Roof

We Inspect

The inspection covers decking, flashing, and ventilation, not just the obvious visible damage.

Every figure is documented in writing — nothing verbal, nothing vague.

We Get It Done

Warranty paperwork is handed over the same day the job wraps.
