Splinters of Faith Construction | Windows Installation & Roofing in Dolgeville, NY 13329

A leaking roof valley requires expert attention to prevent water damage to your attic and interior. At Splinters of Faith Construction, we first conduct a thorough inspection to identify the cause—often worn valley flashing or compromised underlayment. Our solution involves carefully removing old materials, installing new, corrosion-resistant metal flashing sealed with high-quality waterproofing, and ensuring proper shingle integration. This durable repair is designed to handle heavy snowmelt and rain common in our area, restoring your roof's integrity.

It depends on the extent of the rust. For minor surface rust, a professional cleaning and sealing might suffice. However, in Dolgeville's climate, flashing often rusts through, creating leaks. We recommend replacement in these cases. We remove the old, compromised flashing and install new, galvanized or aluminum flashing, properly sealed and integrated with your roofing system. This is a critical step in our roofing service to provide a permanent fix and prevent future leaks around chimneys, vents, and valleys.

Absolutely. A persistent roof leak from a faulty valley or flashing can lead to significant secondary damage. Water can travel along rafters, seep into ceilings, and eventually damage your flooring—causing warping, stains, or mold growth in carpets and hardwood. That's why our comprehensive approach at Splinters of Faith Construction addresses the root cause with our roofing expertise. After fixing the leak, our flooring services can then assess and repair any affected interior surfaces, ensuring your entire home is restored and protected.
