Leak Prevention

Protect your property from water intrusion with targeted repairs and preventive sealing.

What We Offer

Water intrusion is the single greatest threat to your home's structural integrity. A small, undetected leak can cause thousands of dollars in hidden damage — rotting wood, mold growth, compromised insulation, and even electrical hazards.

Northway Roofing specializes in finding and fixing leaks at their source. We don't just patch over symptoms — we trace the path of water infiltration to identify the root cause and perform lasting repairs.

Whether it's failing flashing around a chimney, deteriorated sealant around vents, damaged shingles from a recent storm, or a more complex drainage issue, our experienced team has seen it all and knows exactly how to fix it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my roof is leaking?expand_more
Common signs include water stains on ceilings or walls, musty odors in the attic, peeling paint, damp spots after rain, or visible daylight through the roof. Even small stains should be investigated immediately.
Can you fix a leak without replacing the whole roof?expand_more
In most cases, yes. Leaks are often localized to specific failure points like flashing, vent boots, or a few damaged shingles. We perform targeted repairs that fix the problem without the cost of a full replacement.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency leak?expand_more
We prioritize emergency leak calls and typically respond within 24 hours. For active leaks during storms, we can often provide temporary protection same-day to minimize interior damage.
Do you guarantee your leak repairs?expand_more
Absolutely. All our leak repairs come with a workmanship guarantee. If the same leak returns, we come back and fix it at no additional charge. That's the Northway promise.
What causes most roof leaks in Santa Fe?expand_more
The top causes in our area are deteriorated flashing around chimneys and parapet walls, cracked pipe boots, UV-damaged sealant, damaged shingles from hail or wind, and poor drainage on flat roofs.
