Need roof leak repair in Lyme? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
We fix the leak you called about and then check the rest of the roof while we are up there, because on most Lyme homes a roof old enough to leak in one place is usually working on a second. Estimates are free and the repair gets priced in writing.
Not every Lyme roof needs the biggest job on the sheet. When we quote roof leak repair we tell you honestly whether a repair will hold, whether doing one section will do, or whether you are genuinely past that — and we would rather do the smaller job well.
Metal is our specialty, so if roof leak repair on your Lyme home opens the door to standing seam or a panel roof, we will price that right alongside the shingle option and let you compare the real numbers side by side.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
Where the attic is accessible we go up with a light and follow the tracks back toward the entry point.
On the roof we check the usual culprits first: chimney and wall flashing, valleys, penetrations, and any lap that was never sealed properly.
If the cause turns out to be a roof that is genuinely finished, we tell you that instead of patching it forever.
You get photographs of anything we spot, with no obligation to do a thing about it today.
What comes up on just about every estimate for a job like this.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Lyme homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Lyme ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
We can usually get a Lyme roof covered and stop the water in the middle of weather, but the permanent repair waits for a dry stretch. Sealing something wet just means doing it twice.
Most leak repairs on a Lyme home are a few hundred to around fifteen hundred dollars, depending on what has to be opened up and whether decking underneath has gone soft. The estimate is free.

"The skylight had leaked for two years and three different people had caulked it. These folks reflashed it properly and that was the end of it."
