Where roof leaks usually start
Chimney Flashing
The most common source of roof leaks. The seal between your chimney and roof deteriorates over time, letting water seep in. Usually shows up as stains near your fireplace or damp walls after rain.
See full details
Flashing seals the gap between your chimney and roof. When the aluminum corrodes or the sealant cracks, water finds its way in—often showing up as stains near your fireplace.
Signs you need repair:
- Water stains near fireplace
- Leaks during or after rain
- Visible rust or gaps around chimney
Our process:
- Remove shingles around chimney
- Replace damaged step flashing
- Install new aluminum flashing (color-matched)
- Cut groove in brick and tuck flashing inside
- Seal with high-grade silicone
Warranty: Up to 10 years
Pipe Boots
Rubber seals around plumbing vents crack and pull away from age and sun exposure. When they fail, you’ll usually see water stains on bathroom or kitchen ceilings–right below the pipes.
See full details
After 10-15 years, rubber seals around vent pipes tend to crack and pull away from sun exposure and age. Leaks typically appear on kitchen or bathroom ceilings, as they are usually right below the pipes.
Signs you need repair:
- Ceiling stains in bathrooms or kitchens
- Cracked or pulling rubber around pipes
- Leaks after heavy rain
Our process:
- Remove surrounding shingles
- Replace worn boot with new waterproof seal
- Reinstall color-matched shingles
- Test for watertight seal
Starting at: $249 per boot
Roof Valleys
Where two roof slopes meet, water naturally collects—along with snow, ice, and debris. Without proper waterproofing underneath, valleys become prime leak points during heavy weather.
See full details
Valleys channel rain and snow between roof slopes. They collect more water, debris, and ice than any other part of your roof—making them prone to leaks if not properly protected.
Signs you need repair:
- Leaks during heavy rain or snowmelt
- Water stains along interior ceiling seams
- Visible debris buildup in valleys
Our process:
- Remove shingles along entire valley
- Install ice and water shield
- Reinstall color-matched shingles
- Ensure proper water channeling
Prevention tip: Keep valleys clear of leaves and debris, especially in fall.
Exposed Nails
Nails not properly covered during installation rust and loosen over time. Even a single exposed nail creates an entry point for water that can cause ceiling stains and interior damage.
See full details
Nails that aren’t covered by shingles rust and loosen over time, creating entry points for water and leading to interior damage.
Signs you need repair:
- Rust stains on shingles
- Random ceiling leaks
- Visible nail heads on roof
Our process:
- Remove affected section (typically 5’x5′)
- Install new shingles with proper nail placement
- Seal all penetrations
- Color-match to existing roof
Prevention tip: Check for uncovered nails. When installing roofing, opt for reputable roofing professionals.
Window & Door Flashing
Windows and doors installed above your roofline need quality flashing and sealant. When cheap materials or poor installation break down, leaks appear—especially during heavy storms.
See full details
It’s critical that windows and doors installed above the roofline be sealed properly with good quality aluminum flashing and sealant to avoid leaking. Low-grade materials or poor installation lead to leaks within a few years.
Signs you need repair:
- Leaks only during heavy rain (likely flashing)
- Leaks during light rain (likely roof issue)
- Water around window/door frames
Our process:
- Remove existing flashing
- Inspect and potentially remove window/door
- Reinstall with premium aluminum flashing
- Apply high-grade silicone sealant
- Test to confirm leak is resolved
Diagnostic note: We’ll identify whether the issue is flashing or your roof before recommending a solution.
