Roof Leak Repair in Upper Roxborough: what actually fails

Upper Roxborough leaks are usually quick to trace on the post-war houses: an open attic, one roof, one failed detail. On the older houses in the historic district the attic is smaller or finished, and the trace starts outside at the chimney and the valleys.

The northern end of Roxborough toward Montgomery County, built out mostly after 1950 around an older core: the Upper Roxborough Historic District, on the National Register since 2001.

  • Post-war or historic, read before quoting

04Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Ask how many layers are on itA roofer can count them at an edge or with a small core on a flat roof. If nobody has looked, nobody can price the tear-off, and the difference turns up on the day.
  2. Ask how much comes off each dayOnly as much as can be dried in before the crew leaves. Ask what happens if rain arrives early, and what the roof is closed with overnight.

Note 01How 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 02When to worry about a roof leak?

Straight away if the water is near a light fixture, the ceiling bulges, or the leak grows with every rain. An old, dry stain that has not grown is worth having traced, but it is not an emergency.

Note 03Is it expensive to fix a roof leak?

Usually not. Most leak repairs fall inside the estimated $300 to $3,000 repair range, and the fix itself is often a pipe boot, a flashing or a few shingles. What makes a leak expensive is leaving it, because the water keeps soaking the layers and the deck.
