Bumble Roofing of The Midlands | Roofing Services in Lexington, SC 29072

In our area, skylight leaks are often caused by failed or degraded sealant around the flashing. The constant exposure to South Carolina sun and seasonal temperature shifts can cause the sealant to crack and shrink over time, breaking the watertight seal. Our repair process involves carefully removing the old sealant, inspecting and repairing any underlying flashing damage, and applying a high-grade, weather-resistant sealant designed for our local climate.

Chimney flashing is a complex, multi-part system (step flashing, counter flashing, and cap flashing). A temporary fix often addresses only the visible part, not the underlying issue. In Lexington, the masonry of the chimney can settle independently from the roof, causing the metal flashing to separate. We perform a comprehensive assessment of the entire flashing system and chimney structure to identify the root cause—such as cracked mortar or improper installation—and provide a permanent repair that accommodates natural movement.

Act immediately. Even a small, intermittent leak can lead to significant hidden damage in your Lexington home's attic, including mold growth, wood rot in roof decking and rafters, and compromised insulation. Water can travel far from the original entry point along framing members. We recommend scheduling a professional inspection at the first sign of water stains on ceilings or walls near these features to prevent costly structural repairs down the line.
