Your roofer in Bondurant
Many of the Bondurant homes we inspect are less than 15 years old, in subdivisions like Quail Run, Paine Heights and Wolf Creek. Owners are often surprised to find damage on a newer roof, but open-field wind and hail don't wait for shingles to age.
We're upfront about what falls to the builder, the manufacturer or your insurance, and what doesn't. If we find installation problems on a young roof, we photograph them so you can take them to the builder first.
Bondurant homes and their roofs
Bondurant's older blocks near the center of town have frame houses and post-war ranches. Most of the growth has come since 2000, with subdivisions spreading onto former farmland on every side of town, and builders are still opening new streets.
A brand-new subdivision has almost no wind protection: no mature trees, few fences and long sight lines across fields. That puts stress on ridge caps, starter courses and the first row of shingles at the eaves, where a weak seal lets wind get underneath.

What we see most on Bondurant roofs
- Missing or misaligned starter stripsWithout a proper starter course, the first row of shingles has no sealant holding its edge down. We check Bondurant eaves and ridges first after any strong wind.
- Fast-build installation defectsCrooked courses, exposed nails and missing kick-out flashing turn up on quickly built homes. Some are cosmetic and some will leak, and we tell you which is which.
- Shingles that never sealedShingles installed late in the fall can take until the next warm spell to seal down, and a few never bond properly. Until they do, they lift easily in wind.

Roofing questions from Bondurant
My house is new. Should I call the builder or a roofer?
Start with the builder if you're still inside their workmanship warranty. If they're slow to respond, or the problem is storm damage, which builder warranties typically exclude, call us for an independent inspection and photos.
Can you install permanent holiday lights on a new home?
Yes. Permanent LED roofline lighting mounts in a low-profile track along the fascia, so you aren't on a ladder every November. On a new house we plan the run and power location once. Details are on our holiday lighting page.
