Roof leak repair begins with locating the leak. This task can be surprisingly challenging because water can travel for long distances through a roof structure.
The location where you see a water leak may actually be quite a distance from the damage. This is why it’s important to rely on a roofing professional to deal with a leak. South Point Roofing & Construction provides prompt, reliable leak detection and roof leak repair services for South Carolina and Georgia homeowners.
Water can enter your home through a very small opening, such as an exposed nail hole or under a lifted shingle. It may travel over layers of roofing material and underlayment until it reaches a tear or gap that allows it to get underneath the roof deck. From there, it may run over the plywood until it hits a joint, at which point it may continue along a rafter or the underside of the roof deck.
With a large leak, you will notice discoloration and possibly blistered paint on the ceiling or walls. On a flat ceiling, water may even pool and saturate drywall. You may find damp and soggy insulation in the attic. Moisture inside the roof can further deteriorate insulation and promote the growth of wood rot and mold.
If you find signs of water infiltration in your home, the good news is that South Point Roofing & Construction can locate the leak and restore the integrity of your roof. We can make repairs to a leaky roof due to hail damage, wind damage and general wear and tear. This can be something as minor as adding roof cement over cracked flashing or as large as replacing rotten wood rafters. We also offer professional roof replacement services if needed.
We care about our reputation and work hard for it by providing the highest quality of work and customer satisfaction.
