Roof Leak Repair in East End, Galveston: what actually fails
On an East End house built in the 1800s, a leak can come in through an old chimney, a dormer or a valley flashing that has had more than a century of salt air. Water travels along old framing before it shows, so the attic is checked before anything on the roof is touched.
Built from the 1840s through the late 19th century and designated a historic district in 1971, the oldest of the City's local districts.

Call (409) 683-9988Note 01Who to hire to fix a roof leak?
A roofer who traces the entry point before fixing anything. The stain is where water ended up, not where it got in, and in Galveston the entry is often rusted metal at a wall or an eave. Ask how they will find it, not just what they will charge.
Note 02How much does it typically cost to repair a roof leak?
National averages put roof repairs at about $395 to $1,967, and there is no published Galveston figure. Most of that is finding the entry point; the repair itself is often a vent collar, a flashing or a few shingles.
Note 03Why does my roof only leak when the wind blows?
Because wind pushes rain sideways into places a vertical shower never reaches: under a narrow drip edge, behind flashing that has rusted away from a wall, or up under lifted shingles. Note the wind direction when it happens; it narrows the search.
