Roof Leak Repair in Cypress, California

The first winter storm finds the weak spots. The flashing that was sealed in the spring has cracked, and the water runs behind the metal. Roof leak repair in Cypress means finding the leak at the source and sealing it before the damage spreads.

Signs of a Roof Leak in Cypress

• Water stains on the ceiling — the most obvious sign
• Dripping water during or after the rain — the leak is active
• Musty smell in the attic — the moisture has been building up
• Wet or damp attic insulation — the water ran down the rafters
• Peeling paint near the ceiling — the moisture is working through

Why Cypress Roofs Leak

The flashing is the most common cause. The chimney, the vents, and the skylight penetrations are sealed with the metal flashing and the caulk. The thermal cycling from the warm days and the cool coastal nights expands and contracts the metal, and the sealant cracks.

The age of the roof is the second cause. The 1950s-70s tract homes have shingles that are past their life, and the water gets through the worn surface and the cracked underlayment.
