Roof Leak Repair in Maplewood
The stain on your ceiling is almost never under the hole in your roof. Water slips in at a flashing joint or a cracked pipe boot, rides a rafter for six or eight feet, then drops onto the drywall where you finally see it. Leak chasing is detective work, and guessing wrong gets expensive one repair at a time.
In Maplewood’s fast-built homes the usual suspects repeat: sidewalls sealed with caulk instead of step flashing, missing kick-out flashing quietly soaking the wall below, nail pops opening pinholes through the underlayment, and pipe boots whose rubber split years before anyone looked. Around the chimney, flashing failures cause more “roof leaks” than the shingles ever do.
How We Track It Down
We start in the attic when there is one, tracing the watermark upstream to the entry point, and we photograph what we find so you’re not taking our word for it. The repair gets done in metal and membrane, not a smear of tar that buys one season. You get the before-and-after photos with the invoice.
Water actively coming in right now? That’s a tarp-and-dry-in call for our emergency crew. Otherwise, read how we diagnose on the main roof leak repair page or see all our work on the Maplewood service page.
