Dormer Leak Repair
October 2024
Master-Level Dormer Waterproofing & Repair Dormer leaks are rarely just a shingle problem; they are almost always a structural transition failure. Because a dormer introduces vertical walls, windows, and valleys into a sloped roof system, it creates multiple "catch points" for Houston’s heavy driving rains. Standard roofing "patches" often fail here because they don't address the underlying metalwork. Our specialized approach to dormer restoration includes: * Step Flashing & Counter-Flashing: We meticulously integrate custom-bent metal flashing behind your siding and beneath your shingles to ensure a water-tight seal at the roof-to-wall intersection. * Siding & Trim Integration: We inspect the "j-channel" and window casing where most dormer leaks actually begin, ensuring the building envelope is sealed from the top down. * Valley & Transition Management: We reinforce the critical "dead spots" where the dormer roof meets the main slope, preventing the debris buildup and pondive water that leads to rot. * Wood Rot Remediation: If a leak has been persistent, we handle the precision carpentry required to replace damaged sub-structures before installing the final waterproofing layer. At Associates Roofing, we don't just "caulk" a dormer—we re-engineer the transition to ensure it remains dry for the life of your roof.
