Emergency Roof Repair in Downtown Rialto: what actually fails

Downtown emergencies are often an old patch that let go all at once in a hard rain. The stopgap goes over the failed patch and well past it, and nobody adds another layer of roofing cement on top of the old ones in the wet.

The city's oldest ground: the townsite was laid out in 1887, and the streets around it filled in during the 1950 to 1956 building boom.

  • Matching materials on older houses
  • Old patches found and counted
  • Roofing cement layered over earlier failures
  • Old boards and framing read from the attic

04Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Catch the water and protect what is under itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved or covered with plastic. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture, and switch that circuit off if you safely can.
  2. Note where, when and which way the wind blewWhich room, which part of the ceiling, how long into the rain it started, and the wind direction. A leak that only shows with wind from one side points at one wall or one flashing.

Note 01My roof is leaking. Who do I call?

A roofer, for a stopgap today and a proper repair on a dry day. Say where the water is, how fast it is coming, whether it is still raining and what the roof is made of. That decides whether it is a cover tonight or a booked visit.

Note 02Can permanent repairs be done in the rain?

Not properly. Membranes will not bond wet, sealant will not grip a wet surface, and tile work in the rain breaks more tile than it fixes. In the rain the opening is covered; the permanent repair is made once the roof is dry.

Note 03Is a tarp a repair?

No. A tarp is a stopgap that keeps water out until the roof can be repaired. It is quoted on its own and written down as temporary, and it comes off when the permanent repair is made.
