How the job was done
- Safely accessed the metal roof and ran a controlled hose test with an interior spotter to confirm the leak source.
- Cleaned and resealed the ridge-cap joints and replaced suspect gasketed roof screws in the repair area.
- Replaced the deteriorated vent-pipe boot and touched up the sealant at the chimney flashing.
- Opened the ceiling cavity, replaced the affected insulation, and treated minor staining.
- Patched, primed, and repainted the ceiling, then cleaned up and walked the homeowner through the repair.
