Attic wet after heavy rain? Read this before you call a roofer.
Free roof inspection and estimate in Kenwood, OH. TruRoof gives you honest answers, no runaround.
You climbed into the attic after a heavy rainstorm in Kenwood and found a dark wet spot on the plywood. You don't know how long it's been there or where the water is getting in. A leak like this can rot the decking fast, especially with more rain on the way. A free inspection tracks down the source before it gets worse.
A wet spot on your attic plywood after rain is a sign that water is sneaking past your roof. In Kenwood, where storms roll through often, even small gaps can cause big stains. The leak could be from a missing shingle, cracked flashing around a pipe or chimney, or a worn rubber boot on a vent pipe. Water travels downhill, so the real hole may be several feet above the stain. Mark the wet area with tape so you can find it again.
What it costs to fix depends on what's causing the leak. A simple repair—like replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing—might be a few hundred dollars. If the plywood decking is soft or rotting, the job becomes larger and more expensive. The price also depends on your roof's pitch and how many layers of shingles need to be removed. In Kenwood, homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often have older roof systems that need more attention. A free inspection gives you a clear picture and a written estimate before you spend a dime.

What people in Kenwood 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."
