Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Santa Fe, NM
Water-stained, sagging ceilings are dried, treated, and restored after roof leaks, plumbing failures, and upstairs overflows. A ceiling stain is the visible end of a leak that started somewhere above it, whether a roof detail, a supply line, or a failed seal. The work is tracing that source, drying the cavity above the ceiling, and repairing only once the leak itself has been corrected.

Frequently asked questions
What is a canale and why does it fail?
A spout through the parapet that throws roof water clear of the wall. It fails because it concentrates all the drainage of a roof plane into a small opening, and because the sealant around it is exposed to some of the most intense sun in the country. Blockage or a failed seal puts that whole volume into the wall instead.
Does altitude actually change how a building weathers?
It intensifies the daily temperature swing and the ultraviolet load. Materials expand and contract further each day than they would at lower elevation, and sealants break down faster. The climate averages look mild; what the details experience is a great deal more cycling than those averages suggest.
Fourteen inches of rain a year. Is a flat roof a liability here?
Not inherently, but it is unforgiving of neglect. A flat roof depends entirely on its drainage points working, and here those go months without being tested. The tradition suits the climate; what it does not tolerate is the maintenance interval people apply to a pitched roof.
