Our Roof Leak Detection Services
At Schaumburg Superior Roofing, we offer comprehensive roof leak detection services designed to identify and resolve leaks before they cause extensive damage. Our approach combines advanced technology with expert assessment to deliver precise and effective results.
Visual Roof Inspections
Our roof leak detection process begins with a detailed visual inspection. Our experts examine the roof surface, flashing, gutters, and attic spaces to identify visible signs of water intrusion or damage. We look for cracked shingles, damaged flashing, and water stains that could indicate leak points.
This inspection helps us understand the roof’s condition and narrow down potential problem areas. Visual inspections are essential for identifying obvious leaks and assessing overall roof health. We document all findings and discuss them with you transparently.
Infrared Thermal Imaging
Using infrared thermal imaging technology, we detect temperature differences on your roof that may indicate moisture presence. This non-invasive method allows us to find hidden leaks that aren’t visible to the naked eye. Infrared cameras scan the roof surface to detect cooler spots caused by trapped water or damp insulation.
This technology helps us pinpoint leaks early, preventing further damage. Thermal imaging is safe, fast, and highly accurate, making it a valuable tool in our roof leak detection toolkit. It’s especially effective for flat and low-slope roofs.
Water Testing
In cases where leaks are difficult to detect, we perform controlled water testing. This involves applying water to specific roof sections while monitoring for leaks inside the building. Water testing simulates rainfall and helps us confirm the exact location of leaks.
This method is particularly useful for complex roof designs or when other detection techniques are inconclusive. Our team carefully documents the process to ensure a thorough inspection. Water testing ensures no leak goes unnoticed, enabling precise repairs.
Attic and Interior Inspection
Leaks often manifest inside the building before they become obvious on the roof surface. Our team inspects your attic and interior ceilings for signs of water intrusion, such as mold, staining, or damp insulation. We use moisture meters to measure humidity levels and identify hidden leaks.
This comprehensive approach ensures we detect leaks from all possible angles. Interior inspections complement our roof assessments to provide a full picture of your roofing system’s integrity.
