Flashing failure around vents and chimneys
Why it happens here
Heat cycling through South Florida summers cracks the sealant around pipe boots and chimney flashing. Once the seal breaks, water runs straight down into the attic during the next storm, often showing up as a ceiling stain far from the actual leak.
Our approach
We replace the flashing and reseal every penetration on the roof, not just the one that leaked. Then we water-test the repair before we leave so you know it holds.
