🚨 Roof Leak? The Problem May Be Under the Shingles. 🚨
During this roof inspection, the homeowner showed us where a leak had been appearing inside the home. As soon as we got on the roof, one issue became obvious—soft, spongy roof decking.
You can actually see the roof deck flexing under light pressure, which is often a sign of moisture intrusion and deteriorated wood beneath the shingles.
⚠️ Soft decking is more than just a roofing issue. It can indicate:
🔹 Long-term water damage
🔹 Hidden roof leaks
🔹 Rotted wood
🔹 Structural concerns that need attention
Many homeowners don't realize these problems exist until a leak shows up inside the house. That's why a professional roof inspection is so valuable—it helps uncover hidden issues before they become major repairs.
If you've noticed water stains, leaks, or suspect your roof may have damage, don't wait until the problem gets worse.
