What Work Was Done?

Addressing Roof Leaks Around Vent Penetrations
Bathroom exhaust vents are one of the more common roof penetration areas where leaks can develop over time, especially as flashing materials and seals age or become damaged.
Targeted repairs like this help:
- Stop active roof leaks
- Protect attic and ceiling areas from moisture damage
- Reinforce vulnerable roof penetrations
- Extend the life of the existing roofing system
By addressing the issue early, Lisa was able to prevent additional interior water damage and restore protection around the affected roof area.
