Why a Newly Repaired Roof Might Still Leak

Sometimes, a roof might still leak after a service call. This unfortunate issue can be caused by a variety of reasons. Understanding the reasons behind this problem can help you in event that it happens to you. In today’s article, Quality Assurance Roofing, the top roofing contractor in our local area, explains why a roof might still leak after a roof repair.

• Using the Wrong Materials – This is a problem caused by the inexperience and shoddy workmanship of an unqualified contractor. These contractors usually charge lower rates and use inferior materials. Don’t be fooled by promises that sound too good to be true. Instead, work with an established professional contractor with many years of experience.
• Wrong Diagnosis – Similar to the problem above, this is caused by bad contractors. The source of a leak can be difficult to trace, which is why it is easy for contractors to miss out where the other leaks spots are. Fortunately, as a residential roofing expert, we will always inspect your roof thoroughly after a repair.
• Settling – The previous repairs performed on your roof might develop new cracks because your home’s foundations have started to move away from their initial location. This is a serious problem that can damage many parts of your home. Contact a professional as soon as possible.
