Questions and Answers

What causes roof skylight leaks to be so common in Sandy, and how do you fix them?

In Sandy, skylight leaks are often caused by the expansion and contraction of materials due to our temperature swings, combined with heavy snow loads and wind-driven rain. Over time, this can crack seals and flashings. Our repair process starts with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact failure point. We then replace deteriorated flashing with durable, code-compliant materials and apply high-grade sealants designed for Utah's climate to create a watertight, long-lasting seal around your skylight.

Why are roof valleys a frequent leak source, and what's your approach to repairing them?

Roof valleys are critical drainage channels that handle a tremendous amount of water runoff, especially during Sandy's spring melts and summer storms. Leaks here typically stem from worn or improperly installed valley flashing or compromised shingles. Our expert approach involves carefully removing the affected materials, installing new, heavy-gauge metal valley flashing (like copper or galvanized steel), and integrating it seamlessly with new underlayment and shingles to ensure water is safely channeled away from your home's interior.

If I have a leak, how quickly can you typically respond for an inspection in the Sandy area?

We understand that a roof leak demands prompt attention to prevent interior damage.
