So after hurricane Ian tore our home up, we had a new AMS metal roof put on. The old one lasted a long time and survived a lot of hurricanes undamaged, until the last one. But what roof is designed to withstand cat 5 hurricane strength eye wall winds for over 8 hours.
But the next rainstorm the inside ceiling tiles showed more water damage. Then a lot more. We called the company. They sent out a couple of guys, and they had to fix sometimes and seal the ridge. All fixed they said.
A couple of weeks later we had rain, and we had more leaks. Again we called the company. They said they would send someone out. Then last week it rained hard. Really long, a day and night. And water spots got worse and stayed wet. Ron called the company again.
Today they sent a nice guy out. He looked at it all, he touched the spot around the skylight. He took the skylight bottom out and water dripped out. Everything is wet. Then he went to the bathroom and took that skylight bottom out, it also was wet. He took pictures of everything. Told us he did not like the kind of sealant the first crew used. He said one problem is the inner roof has a plastic sheet over it, so that it is hard to tell where the water is coming in as it runs down the plastic. He took pictures to send to the manager and is calling him. I will let you know. But the good news is he showed Ron how to lower the skylight bottom to add length for the new ceiling tiles. Hugs.
