When water shows up around a window, the first instinct is to blame the window.

Most of the time, that’s not where the problem started.

A ceiling stain usually gets noticed after the rain is over.

That’s what makes it confusing.

A lot of homeowners are told they have a 20 or 30 year roof.

What they are not told is that the system still needs attention long before that.

That’s usually said with some frustration behind it, and most of the time it’s true. Something was fixed. The issue is that what was fixed isn’t always the actual problem.
