Common Causes For Roof Leaks
How do roofing systems spring leaks?
Weather damage: Extreme weather conditions, such as wind, rain, snow, hail, or sun, can cause shingles to crack, curl, or fall off, or cause flashing to loosen or leak.
Age and wear: Over time, roofing materials can deteriorate due to exposure to the elements, UV rays, and temperature changes. This can lead to loss of granules, fading of color, or brittleness of shingles.
A Failed Pipe Boot: A boot is a type of roof flashing placed around a pipe that comes out of your roof. If this pipe boot cracks, water will be able to run down the length of the pipe and into your home.
Improperly Secured Nails: A roof can leak if its nails have been improperly driven into the shingles or roof decking. Water will catch on the exposed nail head and leak down into the deeper layers of your roof.
A Deteriorating Chimney: Whether the metal flashing around the chimney has cracked, the mortar joints have degraded, or the chimney siding has rotted, your chimney could be the cause of your roof leak. A roofer will need to perform an inspection to determine the extent of the damage.
Wildlife damage: Animals such as birds, squirrels, raccoons, or rodents can nest in the roof or chew on the shingles, vents, or wiring. This can create holes, gaps, or fire hazards in the roof.
A Gas Vent Collar Failure: Vents for gas appliances have collars to prevent water from running into your home or business. When these collars have not been properly secured, a roof leak occurs, leading to extensive damage.
A Skylight Installed Incorrectly: Too many roofing companies say they will install your skylight for you when they have no idea how to install these complex fixtures properly. Because of their inexperience and a failure to follow manufacturer guidelines, you may now be experiencing a roof leak.
Our contractors are able to detect even the most elusive sloped and flat roof leaks and can provide a multitude of solutions, depending on your exact needs. No repair job is too big or small for us!
Some of the common signs your roof needs a repair:
Ceiling and wall stains: Both leaks from outside the house and moisture trapped inside can cause stains and, possibly, mold or mildew on the ceilings and walls.
Blistering or peeling paint: Poor ventilation can trap moisture in the house, which may cause exterior paint to peel and blister.
Damage and dark streaks: It may be time for a new roof when shingles fall off and/or become cracked, brittle, or curled or when dark streaks appear. Don’t assume these unsightly stains are dirt. They may be moss, lichen or blue-green algae.
Attic leaks: After severe weather, check for moisture in the attic. A leak could mean there are damaged or missing shingles or that the underlayment or flashing has failed.
