Roof leaks seem to spring up at the worst of times. Luckily, El Paso Roofing can help you out in your time of need.
El Paso is known for fierce weather conditions that cause a great deal of damage to your roof. El Paso is generally a windy city and the frequent wind and dust storms can cause serious damage. While El Paso may not get too many hailstorms, when we do, the hail can cause problems for your roof. Aside from hail and wind storms, the intense El Paso sun can cause damage as well. You may have roof leaks or missing shingles. Whatever the case may be, we can help.

Roof leaks usually take time to appear. Often, valleys in a roof aren’t properly insulated when the house is first built. Over time, certain spots, especially where several points or valleys meet, can become especially susceptible to roof leaks. When a rainstorm comes along, you will notice a drop or two or a wet patch on the floor. If the leak has progressed, you will see plaster from the roof falling. Roof repair is urgent at that point.
Unfortunately, leaks can happen in residential roofing for a number of reasons including broken shingles, damaged chimney flashing, damaged plumbing vents, and issues with wall flashings. Sometimes, people also experience what they think are roof leaks when it’s really from a buildup of condensation in their attic.
Roof leaks can cause significant interior water damage if left untreated, ruining clothes, belongings, and furniture, not to mention walls and floors as well. The best way to find a residential roof leak is to observe your roof for any noticeable damage. Now, you don’t have to get on the roof to do this. In fact, we recommend that you don’t, but roof damage is usually noticeable with just the naked eye, even if you’re looking for signs of damage from the ground below. If you don’t see any noticeable damage on your roof, you could always call a professional roofer to come and inspect it for you. It’s also important to check your attic as well for any possible damage.
Flat roofs are especially prone to leaks because they are prone to ponding water. Since the roofs are flat, excess rainwater has nowhere to run off and will pond instead. If regular maintenance isn’t performed to remove the ponding water, your roof may start to cave in or erode, causing major leaks and water damage.
