The most effective prevention combines proper attic insulation and ventilation to keep your roof's surface temperature even, along with professionally installed ice and water shield underlayment at the eaves. We also recommend keeping gutters clear of fall debris and ensuring they are properly sloped for drainage to minimize winter ice buildup common in our area.

Flashing failure here is often due to our temperature swings, which cause expansion and contraction, loosening the seals around chimneys, vents, and skylights. Myles Vince Roofing fixes this by carefully removing the old, compromised flashing, repairing any underlying decking, and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with durable, weatherproof materials to withstand local conditions.

We strongly advise against waiting. Even a small leak allows water to seep into your roof deck, attic insulation, and interior walls, leading to mold, wood rot, and structural damage that is far more costly to repair. In Westchester's climate, addressing leaks immediately prevents minor issues from becoming major, expensive problems.
