took a leak

Been a few days since we last posted, which you could take to mean nothing has been happening (in a sense this is true cuz our contractor is an infuriating sloth when it comes to moving this job along with anything even remotely related to speed), but the truth is we have been busy with little jobs of our own; however, our achievements are not even worth mentioning in light of last night's drizzle turned indoor shower.

Oh yeah: we sprung a leak.

Everyone be quiet while I figure out where that dripping sound is coming from. Hmm, must be the water seaping down through three whole floors of house.

Someone with more experience than I might be inclined to say there's no such thing as a new roof that doesn't leak. Some person might even suggest we should just be happy we weren't tested by a downpour. To them I say climbing over neighbor's wet roof in the dark to track down source of leak (yes I was victorious in redirecting flow away from utterly un-flashed joint) was plenty test for me to almost kick myself for not having done a better inspection of roofer's work over the past week plus of late summer sunshine.

A small leak in the roof can damage the look of the home and one day when it has been bigger it can damage the house also. I was looking for a permanent solution for these leaks in the roof, which are spoiling my costly paint & walls. But i saw too many people are suffering from this. I found a website which has some solution for these http://www.bakerroofing.com check it once, i think it can help you.

Cheer up! At least you found the leak early. If you let this drag for a long time, who knows how much damage it could do? Big things start small, right? Better have it checked soon.

Just like what Louisa said, you'd better have that checked ASAP. That leak might cause a bigger problem in the long run. It's a good thing that you found that before it caused a lot of damage.

Oh, it looks bad. Well, at least you discovered it earlier before it got worse! ;) I hope you had it checked immediately. It is best to avail of the services of experts in severe cases such as this.
