Leak Risk Profile

Fairfield Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Fairfield

Box gutters on period homes are a specific risk category. When their waterproofing fails or outlets block, the water they carry has no choice but to overflow internally — going directly into wall cavities or ceiling space rather than over the fascia.

Why It Happens

Tile-to-tile contact at the lap is the primary waterproofing mechanism on a tiled roof — each tile overlaps the one below sufficiently to prevent water running uphill under the lap in normal rainfall. When tiles shift or are replaced with a different profile, that overlap geometry is compromised.

How We Fix It

We photograph every repair location before, during, and after — showing the failed component and the completed fix. That documentation is provided to the homeowner and forms part of the repair warranty. It also protects both parties if there's a subsequent insurance or building inspection.

"Got three quotes. True Roof wasn't the cheapest but was clearly the most professional. 10-year warranty sealed the deal. 6 months later, not a single issue."
