Compass Designs | General Contractors & Roofing in Myrtle Beach, SC 29577

In Myrtle Beach, the most frequent cause of leaks is flashing separation or failure around chimneys, vents, and valleys, often exacerbated by our high winds and salt air. At Compass Designs, we start with a thorough inspection to locate the exact breach. We then remove the compromised flashing, properly prepare the surface, and install new, corrosion-resistant flashing sealed with premium sealants to create a watertight, long-lasting barrier against future storms.

Absolutely. Many leaks, especially those stemming from isolated flashing issues or minor storm damage, can be effectively repaired. Our expert team will assess the extent of the damage to the underlying decking and structure. If the roof's overall integrity is sound, we perform targeted, precise repairs to resolve the leak and reinforce the affected area, saving you the cost of a premature full replacement while ensuring your home is protected.

Flashing is the critical seal at the joints and penetrations of your roof—the spots most vulnerable to water intrusion. In Myrtle Beach, with our heavy seasonal rains and potential for hurricanes, compromised flashing can quickly lead to major interior water damage and mold. We use techniques and materials specifically suited for coastal conditions, ensuring these key transitions are sealed to deflect wind-driven rain and withstand thermal expansion, which is a primary cause of separation.
