G & R Roofing | Roofing Services in Memphis, TN 38133

Signs of underlayment damage include interior water stains, peeling paint near ceilings, or a musty smell in your attic—often noticed after heavy rain. In Memphis, our high humidity and frequent temperature swings cause condensation and accelerated wear, while storm-driven rain can exploit any tiny breach. G & R Roofing performs detailed attic inspections to assess the underlayment's condition, a critical step often missed in basic roof checks, to prevent minor damage from turning into major structural issues.

Skylight leaks here are typically due to failed sealant from UV exposure and thermal expansion/contraction, or improper flashing installation that can't handle our wind-driven rain. We don't just re-caulk; we diagnose the root cause. Our repair involves carefully removing the old flashing, inspecting the surrounding decking for rot, and installing a new, integrated flashing system sealed with high-grade membranes and sealants designed for our local climate to provide a durable, watertight seal.

This is a coordinated repair we handle frequently. We start by securing the leak at the skylight, as it's often the water source. Then, we assess the extent of the underlayment damage in the affected area, which may require removing shingles to expose and replace the compromised underlayment. We ensure the new underlayment integrates seamlessly with the repaired skylight flashing. Our process is designed to address the complete system failure, restoring the roof's integrity and preventing future problems in one efficient visit.
