In many Des Moines homes, a roof skylight leak or damaged flashing can allow water to travel down inside walls and affect your plumbing system. Our detailed plumbing inspection checks for signs of moisture, corrosion, or pressure changes that often indicate a hidden leak from the roof. Catching this early can prevent extensive water damage to your ceilings, walls, and attic insulation.

Yes, it's a smart precaution. Curling shingles in Des Moines often signal roof aging or ventilation issues, which can lead to attic moisture buildup and ice dams. This excess moisture can condense on plumbing pipes and vents, causing corrosion or mold. Our plumbing inspection can assess the secondary effects on your home's systems, ensuring a leaky roof hasn't created hidden plumbing problems.

During our Des Moines plumbing inspections, we specifically check for water stains on pipes or fittings in the attic, which can point to a skylight or flashing leak above. We also assess the condition of plumbing vent stacks that protrude through the roof, as damaged seals here are a common source of leaks. Identifying these issues helps us address the full scope of water damage, from the roof down.
