Leak Log

The Leak Log is where we write up what we actually see on Tuscaloosa roofs: the pipe boots that split after 12 summers, the chimneys in The Downs with no counterflashing, the storm-season patterns that fill the schedule every April, and the questions landlords ask before approving a repair. Short, specific, and written for people who have never been on a roof.

The posts cover leak causes, repair costs, storm season, and what to do before the roofer arrives. Each one is written because somebody asked, and the answer was worth keeping.

New articles are added one at a time as we have something worth saying. If you have a leak question we have not covered, send it through the quote form and we may write it up.

Topics on the list: why the tornado-rebuild roofs are failing now, what a 1 percent wind and hail deductible actually means on a $700 repair, how to read a ceiling stain, and what a property manager should ask before approving any roof work.
