Why Roof Inspections Matter After Heavy Rain
Heavy rain doesn't usually cause roof damage by itself, but it exposes existing weaknesses in flashing, sealants, and aging shingles. A post-rain inspection catches small problems before they reach drywall.
What heavy rain reveals
Failed pipe boots, cracked sealant, lifted flashing, and ice and water shield gaps all show up during sustained heavy rain.
What to check inside
Attic decking, rafters near penetrations, and ceilings on the top floor for stains.
