One of the most common problem areas on a residential roof is your plumbing pipe boots. This is the most common roof leak we see on Longview, Lindale and Tyler Texas homes. Practically every house, unless extremely old will have at least 1-6 plumbing pipe boots. To save money on a new roof installation most roofing companies will install a plastic 3 in 1 pipe boot. Over time these plastic pipe boots will dry rot and allow water to penetrate your roof causing attic and interior water damage.
