Emergency Roof Leak Repair
Targeted water infiltration diagnostics for acute roof penetrations. We trace water entry paths along valley transitions, cracked ridge caps, damaged plumbing boots, and deteriorated exhaust vents.
High Point Roofing Corp installs, remediates, and maintains residential and commercial roof assemblies under the Florida Building Code High Velocity Hurricane Zone provisions.
Substrate soundness is non-negotiable: fresh shingles are never nailed over decayed CDX plywood decking.
Every enduring roof begins with structural substrate validation. Water infiltration from past storms degrades plywood sheathing and softens rafters long before stains appear on interior drywall. When we strip an existing roof down to the sheathing, we expose every softened board and re-fasten the entire diaphragm to current Miami-Dade uplift specifications.
Targeted water infiltration diagnostics for acute roof penetrations. We trace water entry paths along valley transitions, cracked ridge caps, damaged plumbing boots, and deteriorated exhaust vents.
Severe infiltration remediation where moisture has penetrated deep into interior ceilings, insulation, and framing. We open saturated sections, sister damaged truss rafters, and rebuild the dry-in barrier.
Deck repairs run $185 to $465 per 100 square feet, measured and billed solely where rot exists. We remove rotten sheathing, re-nail framing to code with 8d ring-shank nails at 6-inch centers, and install fresh 5/8-inch APA-rated CDX exterior plywood.
Flashings and membranes built to withstand ponding water and driving rain.
In South Florida, ninety percent of localized roof leaks occur where vertical masonry walls join horizontal slopes. Mortar joints crack over time under intense heat cycles. We fabricate custom-bent sheet metal flashings and heat-weld thermoplastic membranes to form seamless barriers against hurricane wind-driven rain.
Custom-bent step flashing, parapet wall reglets, and chimney crickets. We cut clean mechanical reglet grooves into exterior stucco, insert 26-gauge galvanized or aluminum flashing, and seal with elastomeric polyurethane.
60-mil single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) and vulcanized EPDM systems engineered for low-slope residential patios, multi-family roofs, and commercial buildings. Heat-welded seams form a continuous, puncture-resistant waterproof plane.
Surface roofing systems engineered for extreme hurricane wind resistance.
Three primary pitched roof systems protect Miami-Dade properties under our installation protocols: 3-tab asphalt shingles for budget-conscious properties, multi-layer architectural dimensional shingles for standard residential homes, and concealed-fastener standing seam Galvalume for lifetime coastal performance.
Clean, economical asphalt shingle replacement suited for rental properties and moderate-exposure residential slopes. Installed over self-adhering modified bitumen underlayment with hot-dipped galvanized fasteners.
Heavy-duty multi-layer dimensional shingles rated to 130 mph wind uplift. Secured with the mandatory Miami-Dade 6-nail high-wind fastening pattern and enhanced shadow bands for superior aesthetic depth.
Standing seam 24-gauge Galvalume handles coastal salt air where exposed-fastener tin rusts out in five years. We install continuous mechanical double-lock panels secured with concealed expansion clips, eliminating surface screw holes entirely.
HVHZ wind code standards are non-negotiable legal mandates, not suggestions.
