Leak tracing in Southlake starts in the attic, not on the roof. Southlake attics tell the truth about leaks. Daylight at a penetration, dark water tracks on decking, damp insulation in a line: these mark the route from the Southlake breach downhill to the stain. The specialist maps that route in the Southlake attic before a single shingle moves. ridge vent. A ridge vent is the continuous vent running along the roof peak that exhausts hot attic air. Cracked or wind-loosened ridge vent sections let wind-driven rain enter along the highest line of the roof. cricket. A cricket is the small peaked flashing structure that diverts water around the uphill side of a chimney. Without a sound cricket, water ponds against the chimney base and forces its way under the flashing. drip edge. Drip edge is the metal strip along the roof's eaves and rakes that guides water into the gutters. Missing or lifted drip edge lets water wick back under the first shingle course and rot the fascia.

Metal flashing at walls, chimneys, and valleys separates as houses settle and sealant ages, and settling and sealant age work every joint loose on schedule.
