B & L Sheet Metal & Roofing | Roofing Services in Bloomington, IN 47404

In our experience, the primary cause is failing or improperly installed flashing. Bloomington's freeze-thaw cycles can cause sealants to crack and metal to contract, breaking the watertight seal around the skylight frame. Our specialty is custom-fabricating and installing durable sheet metal flashing that's designed to withstand our local weather, providing a long-term solution to prevent leaks at this common weak point.

Signs include higher-than-usual heating/cooling bills, musty odors in the attic, visible mold growth, or damp spots on your ceilings. Moisture trapped in insulation is a frequent issue here due to humidity and inadequate attic ventilation. It drastically reduces your insulation's effectiveness and can lead to structural rot. We perform thorough moisture inspections and correct the root cause, often by improving roof ventilation or addressing air leakage points, to restore your home's protection and efficiency.

Sheet metal is crucial for durability and precision. For skylight leaks, we don't just use generic sealants; we craft custom flashing from sheet metal that perfectly fits your roof's contours. For moisture control, we fabricate precise ridge vents, soffit vents, and other components to create a balanced ventilation system. This expert metalwork, tailored to your Bloomington home, addresses the specific failure points that cause the leaks and moisture problems we commonly see, ensuring a repair that lasts.
