Where Boerne Roofs Leak
A handful of spots, and none of them are the middle of a shingle field.
Pipe boots first: the Hill Country sun destroys the rubber in eight to twelve years and they leak every rain. Then chimney and sidewall flashing on stone homes, where the mortar-and-caulk approach many builders used doesn’t hold. Then metal roofs: backed-out fasteners, failed washers and unsealed seams at penetrations. Then skylights, which are common here and whose seals give up.
Intermittent leaks that only show in wind-driven rain usually mean exposed nails, lifted shingles or a ridge vent without a baffle. They get misdiagnosed for years; a hose test reproduces them in minutes.

How We Find and Fix a Leak
A leak that comes back was never fixed.
Attic-first diagnosis
We follow the water trail inside, then confirm on the roof.
Hose testing
For intermittent leaks, section by section until it reproduces.
Cause, not symptom
Caulk over a cracked boot lasts a season. We replace the failed component.
Interior damage documented
Photos of drywall and insulation for insurance or your drywall contractor.
Same-day when water is active
Active leaks jump the queue; we stop the water today if parts must wait.
Warranty on the repair
Same area leaks again, we come back at no charge.
Is It a Leak at All?
Not every ceiling stain is the roof.
Condensation from an attic HVAC unit, a sweating duct, a bathroom fan venting into the attic or a plumbing leak all look like roof leaks from below. About one in five calls we take turns out to be one of these. We check, and if it’s not the roof there’s no charge for telling you so.
Roof Leak FAQ
How do I stop a leak until you arrive?
Move belongings, bucket under the drip, and poke a small hole in the center of a sagging ceiling bubble to drain it in a controlled spot. Stay off the roof. For active leaks we come out around the clock.
Why does my roof only leak in heavy rain?
Wind-driven rain gets under lifted shingles, through unbaffled ridge vents and past exposed nails. A hose test finds it.
Does insurance cover roof leaks?
Sudden damage from a covered event, yes, including the interior damage. Wear and age, no. We document the cause so you know before you file.
How much does leak repair cost?
Most single-source leaks are a modest repair, well under a typical deductible. Chimney rebuilds and valley repairs cost more. Written price after we find the source.
Can a leak mean I need a new roof?
One leak on a 10-year-old roof is a repair. Several leaks on a 20-year-old roof usually mean the system is failing. We’ll show you which.
