Actually the roof is not 25 years old, my bad...
it's 18 years old. Obviously the tree has to be pruned cause it will and it is damaging the asphalt. However, what do you think could have caused this hole (see picture).

Don't forget that this roof is exposed to a cold winter, that means lots of snow and ice.

[ROBERT V. YOUNG]

No solutions.
Recommend: Licensed roofer evaluate the praticalaty of repair or replacing 25 year BUR roofing system..
Suspect: Water infultration. Open membrain below the flashing. Exposed roof deck and membrain ply.
Tree branches and limbs are touching the parapet and roof coping.
Recommend: a licensed arbor cut back all braches to within 6' feet ofthe parapet if possible.
Tree limbs and braches are a leading cause of roof penitrations and gravel errosions.
Gravel errosion leads to aligatoring membrain.
12" of gravel errosion and debres around ( say ) western peramitor of the roof.
The same side as the extended tree braches.
Rusting on Galvinized coping and flashing.
Recommed sealing with rust proof paint.
Check all fasteners in coping and flashing for worn, rusted, lifted fasteners.

I wish it was as easy as the client listening, then thinking Wayne.
Not one costumer in 11 years removed a tree.
Tens of thousands in foundation, walkway, driveway, concrete stair case repairs.
Replace the tree $300- $600 tops. With stump removal.

Robert, once again, what the hell are you talking about?

[ROBERT V. YOUNG]

Jeffery you had made presumptions in the past.
That's all.
We are creatures of habit.
Just hopping questionable habits are not reappearing
Some get conditioned to how they are treated. ( as myself )
Please excuse me if I am off base.
It was not meant to be inflammatory.
Sorry.
