  • Roof leak? How to find a roof leak. If your roof is leaking and you notice damage Inside you want to get your roof repair as soon as possible, before it causes more damage. 1st look for obvious damage like missing shingles or damage from a fallen tree limb. If there's no obvious damage then start looking in the area of the leak for bad flashing, stagger pattern not far enough apart, nails in the key ways, bad pipe flashing installation. In this video I give some general things to look for and how I go about finding the roof leak.

    Keep talking Brian. Most people don't think about their roof until it involves the wallet or purse. The more you know.

    Thanks a lot for all your videos. I've learnt a lot. My roofer couldn't fix my roof after trying twice. Wish you guys can be around.

    It helps a lot when you have access to the under roof area. Im my case no on a corrugated metal roof and it is like finding rat shi_ in flour.

    Side note question. What’s your opinion on mixing exhaust ventilation? Wouldn’t the power vents make the RVO’s intake when they’re on? I typically do either power vents only, box vents only or ridge vent only.

    Where did you get the ladder standoff? I seen A few of your videos. Another question is. Does cougar paws grip to metal roofs ? I been thinking about investing in cougar paws.
    I use the pitch hoppers. And they work great!

      I got the latter standoff on Amazon there's a link in the description. If I can remember the Cougar Paws grip steel But not if they or the roof were dusty.

    I don’t think that nail hole under a vent flange would cause a leak that bad. Is it just dripping straight down to the drywall? Wouldn’t it be better to go in the addict and check that spot visually. It would be very obvious if it is bad enough to stain ceiling.

    It doesn’t really matter if they nail right there all that could’ve been avoided if they would of sat the vent on roof cement/caulking eliminates the problem of water “trickling” underneath it

    Why would anyone put an exposed nail on a vent or boot? The nails go UNDER THE SHINGLES!!!!!
