Finding and Fixing Roof Leaks Before They Spread

Roof leaks are sneaky. The water stain on your ceiling is often nowhere near where the water actually gets in, because it travels along the decking before it drops.

Where leaks usually start

  • Flashing around chimneys, valleys and pipe boots.
  • Cracked or lifted shingles from wind or age.
  • Clogged or failing gutters that back water up under the edge.
  • Worn sealant around vents and skylights.

We do not guess from the driveway. We find the real source and fix it properly so it holds, and if it is an emergency we can tarp to stop interior damage.
