Water Dripping From Your Ceiling Light Fixture?
Emergency roof repair in Taylor Mill, KY – here's what to do right now.
You look up and see water dripping from your ceiling light fixture in Taylor Mill. With the storms that roll through Kenton County, roof leaks can quickly find their way inside. You need to stop the water before it causes a fire or mold.
Water dripping from a light fixture means your roof has a leak. Water travels down the roof deck, follows wires or pipes, and pools at the light. This creates a serious shock and fire risk. The water can also damage drywall and insulation. The leak might be far from where you see the drip.
Emergency roof repair usually starts with a tarp to stop water immediately. A same-day tarp and temporary dry-in can cost a few hundred dollars, depending on roof size and access. The permanent repair price depends on the damage. Small shingle repairs are less. If decking or flashing is rotted, it costs more. You get a clear price before any work starts.
First, turn off the electricity to that room at your breaker box. Place a bucket under the drip. Do not turn on the light or fan. Then call TruRoof for emergency roof repair. We respond 24/7 in Taylor Mill and Kenton County. We will tarp the roof today and fix it permanently later. Waiting can turn a small leak into a big mold problem.
After the repair, your ceiling will be dry and safe. No more water, no more worry about sparks. The roof will be sealed so rain stays outside where it belongs. You can get back to your normal routine.
What people in Taylor Mill 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."
