Water dripping from your ceiling light fixture?
Immediate advice and emergency roof repair in Hebron, KY from TruRoof.
Water is dripping from a ceiling light in your Hebron home. You worry about an electrical fire, mold, and how fast the roof damage might spread. Many Boone County roofs take a beating from sudden storms that roll up the I-275 corridor.
That drip means water has found a path into your electrical box. It often travels along a rafter and pools right above the light. Even a small leak can short wires or start a fire.
Fixing this begins with stopping the water. We tarp the damaged area the same day you call. Permanent repair usually takes a few days to a week, depending on how much decking or shingles need replacing. Cost can range from a few hundred dollars for a small patch to a few thousand if the leak has been hidden for months.
First, turn off the breaker to that room. Place a bucket under the drip. Then call TruRoof for emergency tarping. Do not wait until morning, because water in your ceiling spreads fast and mold starts within 24 hours.
Once the tarp is on and the roof repair is complete, your light works safely again. The ceiling is dry and there is no more worry about a midnight drip. You can get back to normal life.
What people in Hebron 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."
