Thomas Remodeling | Roofing Services in Latrobe, PA 15650

This is a very common issue here. The most likely culprit is compromised roof flashing. The constant freeze-thaw cycles and moisture from snow can cause metal flashing to rust, warp, or pull away from chimneys, vents, and valleys. When the snow melts, water finds these weak points. We perform detailed inspections to locate and repair or replace failing flashing to stop these seasonal leaks.

While a patch might be a temporary fix, we typically recommend replacement for rusted flashing. Patching over corrosion doesn't address the underlying weakness, and the rust will continue to spread, leading to more leaks. We use new, corrosion-resistant flashing materials and install it with precision to create a long-lasting, watertight seal that can handle our local climate.

Our inspection is thorough and focused on common Latrobe problem areas. We start inside your attic to trace water stains, then move to the roof to examine all flashing points, shingles, and sealants. We pay special attention to areas where snow and ice dams form. You'll receive a clear report with photos, an explanation of the problem (like specific flashing failures), and a detailed plan for a permanent repair, not just a quick fix.
