Heavy rain finds every weak spot. If water is coming through your ceiling, the stain usually isn't directly under the problem: water travels along the underlayment or a rafter before it drips. We find the actual entry point, show you photos, and give you a written price. Once you approve, we schedule the repair within 48 hours (weather permitting).
How our leak repair works
- Call or request a leak check. We set up the earliest inspection we can during business hours.
- We find the source. We inspect the roof and attic, trace the water to where it enters, and photograph everything.
- Written price. You get a clear, line-item price for the repair. No pressure.
- Repair within 48 hours of your approval. We fix the cause, not just the stain, and show you photos of the finished work.
Why roofs leak after heavy rain in South Florida
- Worn underlayment under tile. On tile roofs the underlayment is the real waterproofing. Once it ages out, wind-driven rain gets through even when the tiles look fine.
- Cracked, slipped or missing tiles that let water reach the underlayment.
- Flashing failures at walls, chimneys, skylights and valleys, the most common leak points we see.
- Cracked pipe boots and vents. Rubber boots break down in the Florida sun.
- Flat roof problems: open seams, blisters, ponding water and clogged drains or scuppers.
- Lifted or missing shingles after gusty storms.
Signs your roof is leaking
- Water stains or bubbling paint on ceilings and walls, especially after rain.
- Dripping from light fixtures or AC vents.
- A musty smell or damp insulation in the attic.
- Granules in the gutters, or cracked and shifted tiles you can see from the ground.
What to do right now
- Put a bucket under the drip and move furniture and electronics away.
- If a ceiling is bulging with water, keep people out from under it.
- If water is near light fixtures or outlets, turn off that circuit at the breaker.
- Take photos of the ceiling, the attic and any debris for your records and your insurance company.
- Stay off the roof. Wet tile and metal are slippery.
Photos and paperwork for insurance
We document what we find with photos and a written description, so you have a clear record to share with your insurance company if you decide to file a claim. Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your insurer about what's covered.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can you fix my roof leak?
We schedule the inspection as soon as we can during business hours (Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM). Once you approve the written price, we schedule the repair within 48 hours, weather permitting. Call (305) 900-8297.
Do you tarp roofs?
No. We don't offer tarping. We focus on finding the source of the leak and making the permanent repair, scheduled within 48 hours of your approval.
How much does a roof leak repair cost?
It depends on the cause. Small fixes like a cracked pipe boot or a few tiles cost far less than underlayment or flashing repairs. We inspect first and give you a written, line-item price before any work starts.
Can you find a leak when it isn't raining?
Usually, yes. Water leaves stains, rot and damp insulation along its path, and we trace those back to the entry point on the roof.
Does a leak mean I need a new roof?
Not always. Many leaks come from one failed spot. If the roof is old or has several problems, we'll show you photos and give you both the repair and replacement numbers.
Will my insurance pay for a roof leak?
It depends on your policy and what caused the leak. We provide photos and a written report you can share with your insurer.
