Attic wet after rain? Here's what to do.
A straightforward roof inspection and free estimate in Delhi Hills, OH. No sales pitch, just the truth about your attic leak.
You climb into your Delhi Hills attic after a heavy rain and spot a dark, wet patch on the plywood. You don't know if the leak is new or old, or where the water got in. Water travels downhill, so the entry point might be higher than the stain. That damp spot is a warning sign. It won't fix itself.
A wet spot on the attic plywood means water is getting past your shingles or flashing. In Delhi Hills, heavy spring rains and wind can drive water under loose shingles, cracked caulk, or around a bad pipe boot. The stain you see is often lower than the actual leak. Water runs along rafters. Don't ignore it. Even a small leak can rot the roof decking and lead to mold.
A roof inspection to find the leak costs you nothing. We'll climb up, take photos, and give you a written estimate. Fixing the leak might be simple, like a new pipe boot or a few shingles replaced, or it could be bigger if the decking is damaged. Most common repairs in Delhi Hills run between a few hundred dollars and a couple thousand, depending on what we find. You'll know the exact price before any work starts.
Mark the wet spot with painter's tape. That helps us trace it. Then call TruRoof for a free roof inspection. We serve Delhi Hills, Delshire, and all of Delhi Township. One of our roofers will come out, inspect the whole roof, and show you exactly where the leak is. You'll get a clear, written quote with no pressure. Don't wait. Water keeps seeping in with every rain.
Once the leak is fixed, you'll walk up to the attic after the next storm and see dry plywood. No more stains, no musty smell, no worry. Your roof will be solid again. You'll know exactly what was done and why, and you'll have peace of mind for years to come.
What people in Delhi Hills say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."
