Leak Risk Profile
Macleod Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Macleod
Cracked tiles on a pitched roof are typically not visible from the ground — the crack is too small to see at street level. Walking the roof is the only reliable way to locate them, which is why a leak repair needs to start with a full physical inspection.
Why It Happens
Roof penetration flashings fail at their perimeter seals — typically a silicone or butyl bead that hardens under UV exposure and loses its adhesion to the tile surface. Once the seal fails, water tracks under the collar fitting and enters the roof space at the penetration point.
How We Fix It
Parapet flashing repairs involve exposing the flashing turn-down at the wall cap, re-setting it into a cut chase or under the wall cap mortar, and sealing with a UV-stable mastic. We don't seal over an existing flashing that has lost its mechanical engagement with the wall.
