Common signs include interior water stains on ceilings or walls, mold growth in the attic, and a musty smell. From the outside, you might notice curled or missing shingles, as the compromised underlayment fails to provide a proper base. Given our local weather patterns, these issues often start subtly, so we recommend a professional inspection if you suspect any problem.

In Bowling Green, temperature fluctuations and severe weather can cause the metal flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights to expand and contract, leading to separation and sealant failure. We fix this by carefully removing the old flashing, inspecting the underlying structure for rot, and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with durable, weather-resistant compounds to prevent future leaks.

The best prevention is a combination of regular maintenance and proactive repairs. We recommend semi-annual visual inspections, especially after severe storms, and keeping your gutters clean to prevent water backup. Scheduling a professional roof inspection every few years allows us to identify and address minor underlayment or flashing issues before they escalate into costly repairs.
