Water enters at the flashing and travels the deck before it shows on your ceiling – so the ceiling stain is almost never over the leak. We trace from the inside (attic) and confirm from the roof (penetration photography), which is why our repair scopes match the actual failure instead of a guess-and-recaulk.

  • Chimneys: step flashing, counter-flashing, and cricket condition on the high side
  • Skylights: curb flashing laps, sealant age, and deck integration
  • Pipe boots: the #1 leak point in Georgia; rubber collars crack in UV years before the roof
  • Wall transitions and dormers: kick-out flashing at eave-wall junctions

Repair honestly scoped

Most penetration leaks are a boot, a flashing section, or a reseal – not a roof. We say so. When the penetrations have failed because the roof system is at end-of-life, the photos will show it and we’ll say that too.

The insurance angle

Storm-damaged flashing is claim evidence – wind-lifted step flashing and hail-dented vents belong in the file next to the shingle evidence. We document – the carrier decides.

FAQ For This Roofing Topic

What should a homeowner do first?

Start with a documented roof inspection, clear photos, attic or ceiling evidence when relevant, and a written explanation of what was observed. The goal is to separate urgent leaks, repairable details, maintenance items, storm indicators, and replacement-level conditions before money is spent.

When should a roof issue be treated as urgent?

Active leaks, interior staining, missing shingles, exposed decking, loose flashing, tree impact, unsafe access, or repeated water entry should be reviewed quickly. A temporary dry-in may be needed before a full repair or replacement decision is made.

How does Inspector Roofing support insurance-aware documentation?

The company documents observable roof conditions, photos, measurements, repairability, code and manufacturer context, and scope language. Coverage, payment, claim approval, and policy decisions belong to the insurance carrier, not the roofing contractor.
