Protecting Your Home from Bird Nests

Birds nesting in chimneys are a common problem, especially during the spring. Nests can block the flue, preventing proper ventilation and increasing the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. We can safely remove bird nests and install bird guards to prevent future nesting.

"APX Roofing is who we hired to do our roof inspection prior to buying our home. They discovered a couple of minor issues which enabled us to negotiate a better price from the seller. Their attention to detail and knowledge saved us money in the long run!"

Korbin Marcel

"When our slate roof was losing tiles, we weren’t sure whom to trust to repair it. APX Roofing was recommended to us by a friend, and we couldn't be more happy we called them. They matched the new tiles with the existing, making it look as good as new. Excellent service!"
