Fort Oglethorpe Roof & Leak

Roof leak repair in Fort Oglethorpe

A roof leak in the mountains rarely shows up where the water got in. It tracks along a rafter, soaks decking and insulation on the way, and surfaces on a ceiling somewhere else entirely. Finding the entry point is most of the job.

Why roofs leak in Fort Oglethorpe

Fort Oglethorpe sits in the Blue Ridge foothills, which puts it in a different roofing climate from most of Georgia. The mountains get real freeze-thaw cycling: water works into a hairline gap in flashing during the day, freezes overnight, expands, and opens the gap a little wider. Repeat that through a Catoosa County winter and a joint that was watertight in October is leaking by March. Ice at the eaves is the other one — meltwater running down a warm roof refreezes over the cold overhang and backs up under the shingle course, which is how water ends up inside a roof with no visible damage at all. Steep pitches shed snow well but make access harder, and older stock here runs to standing-seam and pressed metal, which fails at the fastener rather than the panel.
