New Orleans is the cultural heart of Louisiana — historic Creole townhouses in the French Quarter, double-galleries through the Garden District and Uptown, raised shotgun cottages across Mid-City, Marigny, Bywater, and Tremé, plus modern construction in Lakeview and the rebuilt parts of the Lower Ninth. Every roofing material and every era of construction is represented here. Historic-district preservation considerations, the city's tropical-storm wind exposure, and the chronic humidity all factor into a Greater New Orleans roof spec.

Leak detection + repair services we offer in Greater New Orleans
- Visual penetration inspection — every pipe boot, vent, skylight, chimney, and satellite-dish footing checked for failure signs.
- Controlled hose testing — sequential water-flow on the roof while someone watches the attic; pinpoints the entry path.
- Moisture meter readings — confirms dampness in framing and drywall when the trail isn’t visually obvious.
- Pipe boot replacement — the most common single leak source: failed rubber collars on plumbing vent stacks.
- Step + counter flashing repair — at chimneys, walls, and skylight curbs where flashing pulls away or caulking ages out.
- Valley membrane repair — for valleys compromised by ladder damage, foot traffic, or poor prior installation.
- Honest repair-vs-replace assessment — a real repair when a real repair will solve the problem; a full quote when the roof is past life.
