Questions and Answers
My roof is leaking near the chimney in Passaic. Is this likely a flashing problem?
Yes, in Passaic, leaks near chimneys, vents, or walls are very often due to flashing failure. Flashing is the metal material that seals these roof joints. Over time, especially with our freeze-thaw cycles, it can corrode, crack, or pull away. Clifton & Clark specializes in diagnosing and repairing or replacing damaged flashing to create a watertight seal and prevent further interior damage to your home.
Can you fix a leaking skylight, or does the whole unit need to be replaced?
Many skylight leaks in our area can be repaired without a full replacement. The leak is frequently due to failed sealant around the frame or worn-out flashing, not the glass itself. Our team will first perform a thorough inspection to identify the exact source of the water intrusion. We'll then recommend the most cost-effective solution, whether that's re-flashing, re-sealing, or, if necessary, advising on a replacement with a more durable, modern unit.
