Roof Leak Repair

Some roof leaks are obvious. Others show up as a ceiling stain, a damp attic, a musty smell, bubbling paint or a drip that appears only in wind-driven rain. Finding the entry point before tearing into the roof keeps the repair focused.

Finding and fixing the leak
A roofing contractor typically checks shingles or panels, flashing at walls and chimneys, vent boots, valleys, the attic underside and the decking. Once the source is found, the contractor explains whether a repair fits or repeated leaks point to replacement in Lakeland, FL.

Protect the rest of the home
Even a slow roof leak can soak insulation, rot decking and stain drywall. With about 45% of Lakeland homes built before 1980, many roofs sit on older decking that deserves a close look.

Call about a roof leak and describe where you see stains, drips or damp spots inside.
