On the lower Russian River, roofs live under tall trees in a damp climate. Redwood debris, moss and falling limbs are part of every winter, and the river itself shapes when crews can get in: the National Weather Service forecast center lists Highway 116 at Drake Road in Guerneville closing at 33 feet (CNRFC).
River-area roof issues
- Limb strikes and debris in windstorms.
- Moss and needle buildup that holds water and clogs valleys and gutters.
- Older cabins and summer homes with layered repairs.
- Access during floods: call before the river rises if your roof is damaged.
