I Spy With My Little Eye ? a Roof Leak

Posted on March 21, 2019

Homeowner maintenance is tiring business! You’ve probably had more than your fair share of leaks as a property owner. Half of maintenance is simply preventing leaks, which involves everything from shingle roof repairs to expensive main line PVC pipe repair. We’d love to help you with your ongoing battle against leaks, so here is a brief guide on detecting and addressing a potential roof leak!

How Can I Tell Where My Roof is Leaking?

If you’re already dealing with a leak in the house, your first step is to take a look at the usual suspects, which include…

Roof Flashing
Damaged Fascia and Gutters
Misplaced or Torn Shingles

Damaged shingles are one of the top sources of leaks for homeowners. All it takes is a prolonged gust of heavy wind, a workman walking around improperly on the roof, or a 30 min hail storm to open gaps in your home’s waterproofing.

Roof flashing is another common origin point. While your flashing is designed to divert water away from vulnerable sections of your roof, damaged flashing will do just the opposite. Some of the most expensive water leaks are caused by this water dumping.

How Do You Fix a Leaking Roof?

Find the source! You can fix interior damage until your budget is shot, or you can carefully inspect the roofing to determine where the leak originated from. Whether that involves getting new shingles or roof flashing repair, it’s worth every penny. The cost of finding and fixing a leak is much less expensive than the mold removal and dehumidifying service you’ll need if you let the roof leak stay!

This is one of the best contractors I have hire in my life. These guys have this 5 star rating because they’re so good at what they do. The sales process was simple and not pushy.

Absolutely one of the best and responsive roofing companies I have ever dealt with. Every step of the way someone was there on site and through text for every question I had.
Very professional and very clean the entire install. I definitely would recommend TAG Roofing to anyone needing a new roof or repairs.

Friendly and professional, TAG roofing provided inspection of my roof after two recent hailstorms. The fact that they didn’t insist on my roof needing repair and showing me visually why ensures that I will absolutely be using them when the time comes.
