About this service
What a Roof Leak Inspection Aberdeen WA Actually Covers
A roof leak inspection Aberdeen WA is a systematic search for the entry point of water, not just the stain on your ceiling. Water travels along rafters and underlayment before it drips, so the visible damage is often 10 to 15 feet from the actual breach. We inspect the attic first, then the roof surface, checking flashing, pipe boots, valleys, and skylight seals with a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera to map the wet path.
Aberdeen's 45 inches of annual rain and moss-friendly climate make hidden leaks common, especially on homes built before 1980 with original roof underlayment. If you have noticed a musty attic smell or a brown ring on your ceiling after a storm, a professional roof leak inspection Aberdeen WA is the fastest way to avoid a $3,000 structural repair. We also serve surrounding areas like Cosmopolis and Hoquiam.

What's included
What Our Roof Leak Inspection Includes
Every roof leak inspection Aberdeen WA includes a full diagnostic scan and a written report. We do not charge extra for photos or moisture readings. If we find a leak, we give you a repair price before we start. Here is what you get.
✓
Attic Moisture Scan
We check the attic decking, insulation, and rafters with a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera. This finds hidden saturation that visual inspection misses. You get moisture percentage readings for every wet area.
✓
Roof Surface Inspection
We walk the roof (when safe) and inspect shingles, flashing, valleys, pipe boots, skylights, and vents. We photograph every defect. For steep or fragile roofs, we use a roof inspection drone to get close-up images without risking damage.
✓
Water Test Confirmation
If the source is unclear, we use a hose test kit to apply controlled water to suspect areas while monitoring inside. This confirms the exact entry point. It adds 15 to 20 minutes but eliminates guesswork from the repair.
✓
Written Report with Photos
Within 24 hours you receive a PDF report with photos, moisture readings, cause, and recommended repair. It is formatted for insurance claims and real estate transactions. You can forward it directly to your adjuster or agent.
✓
Upfront Repair Pricing
If a repair is needed, we give you a fixed price before we start. No hourly billing, no surprise charges. If you decide to proceed, we can often do the work the same day, especially for flashing and sealant repairs.
How it works
Our 5-Step Roof Leak Inspection Process
01
Phone Triage
You call or book online, and we ask three questions: where is the stain, when did it appear, and has it rained since. That tells us whether to treat it as an emergency roof leak inspection Aberdeen WA or schedule a standard visit. Most calls are answered in under 60 seconds.
02
Attic and Interior Scan
We start inside with a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera, checking the attic decking, insulation, and rafters for wet spots. This step takes 20 to 30 minutes and often finds the leak path before we ever climb the roof. You get a verbal summary on the spot.
03
Roof Surface Inspection
Using a ladder stabilizer and pitch hoist for safe access, we inspect shingles, flashing, valleys, pipe boots, and skylight seals. We photograph every suspect area. If we find missing shingles or damaged flashing, we note whether it is a repair or a replacement candidate.
04
Water Test Confirmation
When the source is still unclear, we run a controlled hose test kit on suspect areas, one section at a time, while a second technician watches inside. This confirms the exact entry point. The test adds 15 to 20 minutes but eliminates guesswork from the repair.
05
Written Report and Plan
Within 24 hours you receive a report with photos, moisture readings, cause, and a recommended fix. If it is a simple sealant or flashing repair, we can often do it the same day. You get upfront pricing before any work begins, and no surprise charges.
Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use for Leak Detection
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Infrared Thermal Camera
Detects temperature differences caused by hidden moisture behind drywall and under roofing. It finds leaks that are invisible to the naked eye.
Moisture Meter
Measures the percentage of water in decking, insulation, and drywall. We flag anything above 18% as a potential mold risk.
Roof Inspection Drone
Captures high-resolution images of steep or fragile roofs without risking a technician's safety. Ideal for slate and tile roofs.
Hose Test Kit
Applies controlled water to suspect areas to confirm the exact entry point. This eliminates guesswork before a repair.
Ladder Stabilizer and Pitch Hoist
Keeps our technicians safe on steep pitches and protects your gutters from ladder damage during the inspection.
Real results
Before and after.
Ceiling Stain in Torry Bungalow
Before
A homeowner in Torry had a brown water stain spreading across the living room ceiling. They had painted over it twice, but it kept returning after every rain. The attic smelled musty, and they worried about mold.
After
We found a cracked pipe boot on the roof, 12 feet from the stain. We replaced the boot and sealed it, then confirmed with a water test. The stain stopped growing, and the attic dried out within a week. Total cost: $280.
Chimney Leak in Ferryhill Two-Story
Before
After a windstorm, water started dripping down the chimney in a Ferryhill home. The drywall around the fireplace was soft, and the homeowner saw water stains on the ceiling. They called us for an emergency inspection.
After
Our inspection revealed failed chimney flashing and a cracked crown. We replaced the flashing with new metal and sealed the crown. The leak stopped immediately, and we repaired the drywall. The homeowner filed an insurance claim with our report and got reimbursed.
Moss-Covered Shingle Roof in Rosemount
Before
A Rosemount homeowner had thick moss covering half the roof. Shingles were lifting, and they had noticed a small leak in the attic after heavy rain. They were considering a full roof replacement.
After
We removed the moss, treated the roof, and replaced 15 lifted shingles. The leak was traced to a valley where moss had trapped water. We cleared the valley and resealed it. The roof is now watertight, and the homeowner saved $8,000 by avoiding replacement.

“After the last windstorm, water was dripping into our attic. I called at 8 a.m. and they were here by 11. The inspection was thorough, and they showed me photos of the missing flashing. They tarped it that afternoon and came back to repair once the rain stopped. Fair price, no runaround.”
