Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Leak Repairs

What is the best solution for a leaking roof?

Roofing leak repair is all about:

• Speed – Fixing leaks fast is key to preventing long-term structural damage and extending the life of your roof.

• Thorough work – Instead of fixing the only leak you can see, a roofing leak specialist in Puget Sound will detect and repair all leaks.

• Prevention – Property owners must commit to long-term maintenance after leak repair to prevent future water intrusion.

To meet all of these goals, customers have a few options:

• Emergency tarping can help prevent immediate water intrusion, but it isn’t a long-term solution.
• Thorough leak repair can fix any current issues.
• Roof treatments can help prevent damage that can cause future leaks.
• In extreme leaking cases, a complete re-roof might be the best option.

Can you use Flex Seal to fix a roof leak?

Simply put, products like Flex Seal aren’t as effective or powerful for leak repair and prevention as professional-grade roofing products. In addition, Puget Sound roofing leak specialists know how to apply the products available to most effectively fix leaks — and identify and repair any damage caused by leaks.

While using a product like Flex Seal can provide a temporary solution, property owners with leaking roofs would be best served by experts.

How do I find the source of a leak in my roof?

If you’d like to sleuth out the source of your roof leak yourself, head up to your attic with a flashlight and look for:

• Dark spots in your wood or insulation (moisture stains)
• Pest activity (often a sign of rotting wood or intrusion points)
• Mold, mildew, and moss growth (moist habitats where water could be leaking in)
• Rotten or deteriorating structural components (that may be degrading due to water intrusion)

When in doubt, call in a roofing expert for assistance.
