About Creative Roof Solutions LLC

Mount Pilchuck wears a white cap most winters, visible from plenty of Lake Stevens rooftops, and it's a fair reminder of how much colder the foothills run than the lake a few miles below. Down at lake level, the trouble is usually a single wet, heavy convergence-zone snowfall rather than a real winter, but that kind of snow sits in roof valleys and against chimney flashing long enough to become a problem. Creative Roof Solutions spends most weeks on shingles and flashing, and a storm like that sends the same ladders up to clear snow and ice out of valleys and off eaves before meltwater backs up under the shakes. Steep-pitched roofs built for the region's rain shed a light snow well enough on their own; it's the low-slope additions and the shaded north sides that need the help. Cleared section by section, the roof keeps the water running where it was built to send it, right through whatever the rest of winter brings.
