Common Questions
What's the most common cause of a roof skylight leak in Houston homes, and how do you fix it?
In Houston, skylight leaks are often caused by failed sealant or flashing due to our heat and humidity cycles, which cause materials to expand and contract. Our fix involves a thorough inspection, removing the old, compromised sealant, and reinstalling or repairing the flashing with high-grade, weather-resistant materials designed for our climate to create a durable, watertight seal.
Why does roof flashing lift or come loose on Houston roofs, and is it an urgent repair?
Roof flashing can lift due to improper installation or, more commonly here, thermal expansion from Houston's temperature swings and high winds. It is an urgent repair. Even a small gap can let in driving rain, leading to water damage, mold, and structural issues inside your home. We recommend scheduling an inspection promptly to prevent costly interior repairs.
Can you repair a lifted flashing, or does the whole section need replacing?
It depends on the extent of the damage. Often, if caught early, we can resecure and reseal the existing flashing. However, if it's severely corroded or bent, a replacement is necessary for a long-term solution. We'll always provide an honest assessment and recommend the most cost-effective repair to properly protect your Houston home.
