Call (267) 827-1752Note 01Who to hire to fix a roof leak?
A roofer who traces the entry point before fixing anything. On a roof covered over more than once, water can run between layers before it shows, so a patch straight above the stain often fixes nothing. Ask how they will find it, not just what they charge.
Note 02How long can you leave a leaking roof?
A small, steady drip in one spot, caught in a bucket, can usually wait a few days for a proper repair. Water near a light fixture, a ceiling that bulges, or a leak that grows with every rain cannot. On a layered roof, every day the water runs it soaks more of the old layers and the deck under them.
Note 03Is roof leak sealant a permanent solution?
No. Sealant over a failed flashing or an open seam buys a season at best, and on a roof with several layers it can steer the water somewhere new. The permanent fix is the failed detail replaced: the boot, the flashing, the seam.
