Ford's Roofing and Siding | General Contractors & Roofing in Desoto, TX 75115

In Desoto, the most common cause is worn or improperly installed flashing in the roof valley, which is the vulnerable intersection where two roof slopes meet. Heavy rain and seasonal temperature shifts can accelerate this wear. We fix it by carefully removing the old material, inspecting the underlying decking for rot, and installing new, high-quality metal flashing sealed with durable waterproofing compounds to create a long-lasting barrier against our local downpours.

This is a frequent issue we see in Desoto. Often, the problem isn't the gutters themselves but the roof's edge or drip edge flashing. If the shingles extend too far over the gutter or the drip edge is incorrectly installed, water can bypass the gutter entirely or flow behind it, causing overflow and potential fascia board rot. We diagnose the specific cause—whether it's the pitch, the drip edge, or gutter positioning—and correct it to ensure water is channeled properly into your gutter system.

After fixing the primary roof leak or gutter issue, our team can expertly repair or replace damaged siding, soffits, and fascia.
