Leaks are a common occurrence. There are many areas of a roof that can become compromised due to lack of maintenance, damage, and deterioration over time. Rarely does a leak start where it appears first to us. Moisture can travel in many directions through many different materials. My goal of the posts is to point out some of the common areas of concern and potential remedies to the situation. Always remember every home and situation is different and the information here is meant to guide the homeowner but not replace the expertise of a qualified roofing contractor.
