Q&A
What should I do first if I discover a roof leak after a storm in Austin?
Your first step is to contain interior damage by placing buckets under active drips and moving furniture if it's safe to do so. Then, contact a professional like Horizon Construction. Our teams are experienced with the specific wind and water damage common after Central Texas storms. We prioritize emergency roof repairs to secure your home from further water intrusion, assess the full extent of the storm's impact, and provide a clear plan for a lasting repair that addresses Austin's weather patterns.
My roof flashing looks corroded. Is this a common issue in Austin, and how do you fix it?
Yes, flashing corrosion is a frequent concern here due to our climate's humidity and temperature swings, which can accelerate wear on metal components. Our team, led by VP Mike Rankin who has extensive local roofing experience, inspects flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys for weakness. We don't just patch corroded areas; we replace compromised flashing with high-quality materials suited for our environment, ensuring a proper seal to prevent leaks at these critical junctions. This proactive repair is key to maintaining a watertight roof in Austin.
