Over the years, I believe I have seen it all. A homeowner from Redondo Beach called in distress over\u00a0a brand new roof that continually leaked despite a lack of rain.<\/p>\n
The roofer who did the job refused to repair anything because he knew the roof was properly installed and not leaking. Regardless, the homeowner resorted to catching raindrops in pots.<\/p>\n
To find the problem I removed the tiles and roofing material from the ridge above the leak. I found saturated plywood and rotting wood. The humid beach air, after rising up a high interior wall and being blocked by the waterproof roof, condensed and later dripped down. <\/p>\n
To alleviate the problem, I replaced the wet wood and vented the roof ridge to allow the warm, moist beach air to escape freely. <\/p>\n
