Roof leak repair — traced, sealed, and warranted.

Roof leaks are almost always a symptom of one of five things: a failed pipe boot, a torn flashing, a lifted shingle, a cracked skylight seal, or aged underlayment. Homebase finds the source, replaces what's failed, and gives you a six-month leak-free guarantee.

Most common leak sources in Plano homes

• Pipe boots — the rubber gasket around plumbing vents cracks after 8–12 years in Texas UV. #1 leak source we find.
• Chimney and wall flashing — where the roof meets vertical surfaces. Failure mode: the caulk shrinks, water sneaks behind.
• Lifted shingles from wind events — a broken sealant strip lets wind-driven rain under the shingle.
• Skylight perimeter seals — original factory tape fails around year 10.
• Nail pops — a shingle nail that backed out becomes a tiny funnel straight into the decking.

The Homebase leak diagnosis

1. Interior inspection — where is the water actually showing up, and when?
2. Roof walk from the ridge down — we photograph anything suspicious.
3. Controlled hose test if the source isn't obvious — we simulate rain on one section at a time until we find the entry.
4. Repair with matched materials — you get before/during/after photos.
5. Six-month leak-free guarantee.

Older roof, multiple leaks, or leaks after every storm? A replacement may make more financial sense than three years of repairs. We'll tell you honestly.
