Two different roofing problems in one city

In the older streets near the lake, the issues are age: multiple previous roofs, decking that has taken decades of fasteners, and flashing details done to standards nobody uses now.

In the new subdivisions the problem is the opposite. The materials are current and the code compliance is good, but the rooflines are complex and every valley, dormer and penetration is a detail that has to be right. New roofs leak at joins, not in the middle.

Open ground and lake wind

South and east of the city the land opens out into pasture, and wind crossing open ground and open water arrives at the roof with nothing to slow it. Edges take the load first, which is why the eaves, rakes and ridge are the first places we look.

Correct fastening and edge detail matter more on exposed lots than anywhere else on the roof.

Storm claims

File before authorizing permanent repairs, document and date the damage, and have the contractor present when the adjuster walks the roof. Florida’s deadline for reporting hurricane and windstorm damage is shorter than it used to be.

We can tarp an active leak the same day while the claim proceeds.
