Question Answers

What's the most common cause of a skylight leak on a Chicago roof, and how do you fix it?

In Chicago, skylight leaks are often caused by failed flashing—the metal strips that seal the joint between the skylight and roof. Our harsh freeze-thaw cycles can crack the sealant and loosen the flashing. Our repair process involves a thorough inspection, removal of the old, compromised materials, and a precise re-installation with new, ice-and-water shield compatible flashing and high-grade sealants to create a durable, weather-tight seal.

Why are roof valleys so prone to leaking in the Chicago area?

Roof valleys are critical drainage channels that handle a heavy volume of water, snow, and ice melt. In Chicago, this constant flow, combined with debris like leaves from our many trees, can wear down the valley lining or cause water to back up under the shingles. We address valley leaks by clearing all debris, assessing the underlying structure for damage, and applying a new, reinforced valley system—often using a woven or closed-cut method with premium underlayment—to restore proper water flow and protection.

Can you repair a leaky roof valley without replacing my entire roof?

Absolutely. In many cases, a localized valley repair is a perfect solution, especially if the rest of your roofing system is in good condition. Our expert technicians will isolate the damaged section, carefully remove the affected shingles and underlayment, and install a new, high-performance valley. We match new materials to your existing roof for a seamless look and ensure the repair integrates perfectly with the surrounding structure to prevent future issues.
