Rodents - Roof damaged by rodents. The rodents need to be removed before the problem can be solved.
Curling - Nearing the end of the service life shingles may curl at the corners and lose their granules.
Ridge Capping - Capping on cedar often cracks over time which allows direct water ingress.
Storm Collars - Sealant on B vent collars dries, cracks and deteriorates over time.
Moss - Moss accumulation on concrete tiles will prevent water from running freely down the rain channels, allowing it to back up under the tiles.
Penetrations - Penetrations are often incorrectly installed and sealed and of may direct water into the building.
Gutters - Cleaning your gutters will prevent water from backing up and causing interior water damage.
Splits - Aging cedar dries and cracks, "cracks on cracks" are direct sources of ingress.
Flashings - Back pan flashing on chimneys and skylights are often the site of water ingress due to improper sealant and/or installation of the flashings.
