I've had a chronic problem with the roof of my condo leaking when the temperature is extremely low. I have had three different roofing companies out to try to identify the problem. All three said they couldn't find anything, including a handyman who my condo association hired and then sent me the $190 bill for a 15-minute assessment!!! In desperation I reached out to Shane Kaylor, owner of the Roof Detective. He graciously listened to my concerns over the phone and offered some plausible causes. Several days later he came out to my home, along with Harrison Watkins, and did a thorough assessment and showed me the cause of the problem, something that 3 different companies could not explain. I am so grateful that I finally someone who knows this trade and would recommend him highly for any roofing issues.
