Question Answers

What is the best way to prevent ice dams on my Plano home's roof?

The most effective prevention combines proper attic insulation, ventilation, and sealing air leaks. As your local contractor, we assess your specific roof to recommend solutions like adding insulation or installing heat cables in critical areas to stop ice dams before they cause interior water damage.

Why does my roof leak in the valleys during heavy rain, and how can Thomas Builders fix it?

Valley leaks are often due to worn or improperly installed flashing or compromised shingles in this high-water-flow area. Our team will inspect the valley, identify the failure point, and perform a precise repair or replacement using quality materials to ensure a watertight seal that handles Plano's storms.

Can new windows help with the problems caused by my old, leaky roof?

Absolutely. While a new roof addresses water intrusion from above, old, drafty windows can lead to moisture and ice dam issues from inside your home. We offer energy-efficient window installation that improves insulation, reduces drafts, and helps maintain consistent attic temperatures, which is a key part of a holistic solution for a healthier, more efficient home.
