Prevent costly roof leaks on your Maryland home

By Kim Cox

A leaking asphalt roof on your MD home can be caused by many things.

Old, worn shingles… Rotted roof decking… Torn underlayment… And storm damage…

But there’s actually another cause, which is quite common and inexpensive to fix.

First…let me ask you…

Have you had any work done on your home’s exterior in the last 3-4 years?

Roof leak cause this damage — Don’t let a roof leak cause major damage like this

For example:

New siding installed
Exterior painting
New gutters installation
New windows installed
Antennas or satellite dish removed or replaced
Or any other work that required staging to be used

If you answered yes, there’s a possibility you’ve already had a leak, or you will get one in the near future.

Why?

Because these home improvement projects usually require drilling holes in your roof for staging, bracing, or mounting.

The problem is that most crews either don’t seal the holes left behind when they’re done, or they improperly seal them with caulk that doesn’t adhere to the tar, or that will crack and fail after a few years, causing water leaking into your home..

Either way, your roof will eventually leak. And you don’t want your roof to leak!
