Masonline Roofing Co is a Cleveland roofing company built by a man who spent fourteen years rebuilding chimneys. Masons get called when a leak shows up near brick, and Steve Lasko kept climbing ladders to sound mortar and failed flashing. He founded this company to work the junction from the roof side.

Lake effect tests every roof on this shore. Snow loads the roof, meltwater hunts the eaves, and a hundred freeze and thaw cycles a winter work every seam the last crew left behind. The roof reports on all of it, junction by junction.

What we do

Roof repair

Ice dam leaks, chimney and wall flashing failures, missing and lifted shingles, vent and pipe boot failures, and storm damage, traced back to the junction or detail that actually let water in. A repair here begins with a reading of the roof, not a tube of sealant and a guess.

Roof replacement

Full tear-off and replacement when the roof system itself has reached the end of its working life, planned from the junction reading outward: deck condition under snow-load history, flashing metals at every wall and chimney, and attic ventilation settled before materials are ordered.

Why Cleveland roofs fail the way they do

This shore writes its weather on roofs in a specific hand. Lake effect snow arrives in bands, loading one suburb's roofs and skipping the next, and it sits for weeks on the older, shallower pitches across the inner ring. Heat leaking from under-insulated attics melts the middle of that load, the water runs down to the cold overhang, and the ice dam builds. Summer brings hail off the lake and wind that lifts tired tabs on the exposed west and south edges.

Underneath the weather sits the stock: colonials and bungalows from the 1920s and 1930s across Lakewood, Parma, Euclid, and the Heights, most of them carrying a brick chimney through the middle of the roof plan. Caulk never fixed a flashing. It only dated the next leak. That is where every visit starts.

How an estimate visit works

Reaching out. Reach us at Call for same-day help or through the estimate form. Tell

Janet what the roof is doing: a stain near the chimney, a drip at the eave in a thaw, shingles on the lawn after wind. 2. The junction read. Steve Lasko reads the roof from its junctions outward: chimney flashing, wall lines, valleys, eaves, and vents, then the field itself. 3. The winter question. Where ice or snow is part of the story, the attic side gets read too: insulation, ventilation, and the melt pattern the ceiling has been recording. 4. The reading, plainly. You hear which detail failed, what the weather did to it, and whether the honest scope is a junction rebuild, a section repair, or a replacement talk. 5. The written estimate. Scope, materials, and a price written for your roof, which the contractor confirms before any work begins. The estimate costs nothing, asks nothing of you, and obliges you to nothing.

Questions, answered plainly

The roofer said my chimney is the problem. Is it? Sometimes the brick really has failed, and a mason's eye is a useful thing to have on the question. More often the mortar is sound and the flashing where roof meets brick has failed, which is roofing work wearing a masonry costume. The visit reads both sides of the junction before anyone blames either.

Can you clear an ice dam today? Honest answer: it depends on the load on the roof and the state of the eave, and anyone who promises winter speed without seeing the roof is guessing. Call Call for same-day help Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm, describe what the ceiling is doing, and you will get a straight read on what can be done and when.
