Most roof repair calls start with a stain on the ceiling or a drip after rain. In Tucson, common trouble spots include:
- Scuppers and drains on flat roofs that clog with debris and let water pond.
- Cracks or worn coating on foam roofs, which let sun and water reach the foam.
- Parapet wall caps and stucco where walls meet the roof.
- Cracked or slipped tiles, and underlayment under tile that has aged out.
- Flashing around vents, skylights, evaporative coolers, and AC curbs.
While you wait
If water is coming in, move belongings, put a bucket under the drip, and take photos for your records and any insurance claim. Do not go up on a wet or steep roof yourself.
Send the form with what you see. Your request may be shared with an independent roofer who can find the source and give you a repair estimate.
Questions
Can a leak be repaired instead of replacing the roof?
Often, yes. A roofer can tell you whether a local repair, a recoat, or a replacement makes sense after looking at the roof.
Why does my roof leak only in monsoon storms?
Wind-driven rain can push water sideways under flashing, tiles, or parapet caps, which may not leak in calm rain.
