 💧 Why is My Roof Leaking in the Same Spot Even After Repairs? 🛠 😡 One of the most frustrating experiences for property owners is discovering that a roof leak has returned, seemingly in the same place where it was previously repaired. As roofing professionals, we understand how concerning this can be, and we want to shed some light on why this happens. 1️⃣ Underlying Issues: Often, a recurring leak is not just about the visible damage but might indicate deeper, underlying issues. If the initial repair addressed only the surface problem, such as a small crack or puncture, but didn't account for structural damage or compromised materials, the leak may resurface. 2️⃣ Roof Design and Age: The design and age of your roof play significant roles. Older roofs or roofs with complex designs may have multiple layers or drainage issues that contribute to persistent leaks. Water can travel along beams or seams, making it appear that the same spot is leaking while the source is elsewhere.   3️⃣ Weather Conditions: Extreme weather conditions can exacerbate existing vulnerabilities. Heavy rain, snow, or high winds can re-open a previously sealed area or create new stress points around the repaired section.   4️⃣ Quality of Materials: Not all roofing materials are created equal. If subpar materials were used in previous repairs, they might not hold up under normal wear and tear, leading to repeat leaks.   5️⃣ Maintenance Gaps: Regular maintenance is key to a long-lasting roof. If a roof isn't regularly inspected and maintained, small issues can quickly become big problems, even after a repair. At MJT Roofing, we believe in getting to the root of the problem. Our comprehensive inspections and quality materials ensure that repairs are done right the first time. If you’re dealing with a recurring leak, let us help you find a permanent solution.

The importance of taking core samples : When inspecting a roof to determine it's potential for restoration, it is always crucial to determine if there is any moisture content in the system. Unfortunately it is a commonly skipped step that can lead to expensive consequences for those that do. If moisture in the layers below the roofs surface is not removed prior to the new system being installed, it is forced to go somewhere once the roof heats up again. Over not so long a time, this will either rust a metal deck, rot a wood deck/create mold, or blow out your liquid applied system. It is a risk we at TSE do not take. It is a no brainer to take 10 minutes inspecting the unseen portion of the roof system at this stage rather than cost ourselves and the customer loads of headache 3 years down the line. No matter who you choose to do your roof, please be weary if they do not opt to core the roof. (Also most manufacturers require this inspection in order to receive a warranty) - We would like to notate that this roof did contain moisture, and about 5% of the roof insulation will have to be replaced prior to application of the new system. #tseroofing #TSE #tsecommercialroofing #roofing #inspection #Estimating #restoredontreplace #duediligence #integrity #TRP #trproofingproducts #gotropical

What is flashing, and why is it important? Flashing is a thin, usually metal sheet that goes on the weak points of your roof—such as corners and joints—to help redirect water off your roof. Without roof flashing, or if it’s not properly installed, these areas would have leaks develop, which can cause further water damage in your attic and home!
