Roof Leak Repair in Dayton, TX & Liberty County

Water rarely comes in right above the stain. It travels along decking and rafters before it shows on a ceiling, so a roofer usually starts in the attic and works out to flashing, valleys, vents and skylights. Heavy thunderstorm rain driven by wind can push water under shingles that stay dry in an ordinary shower.

While you wait: catch the drip, move furniture and electronics and switch off the circuit if water is near a light fixture or fan. If a ceiling is bulging with water, keep people out of the room.

In this humid climate, a small leak left alone can rot decking and grow mold in the attic, so it is worth having even a slow drip looked at.
