An Olympia Roofing Overview

If all is working properly, you seldom even realize your roof exists. However, when you encounter a leak coming through the ceiling, you suddenly become acutely aware of just how important your roof is. While repairs are often possible, and preferable, to a complete roofing job, there comes a point where repairs will no longer suffice.

Unfortunately, some leaks manifest themselves only after they’ve become a serious problem. In older roofs, water can leak for some time before it’s ever noticed. Water may accumulate above the membrane of a flat roof, or saturate insulation before a sudden failure causes major damage. Leaks may also travel along roof support beams, so the place you see the leak may not be indicative of where the roof failure occurred.
