This is a typical range, not a quote. The sections below explain what moves the price for this job. The dot marks the middle price, and a + means some businesses charge more.
What the job involves
A leak repair starts with a symptom, such as a ceiling stain, a drip or damp insulation, and not with a known spot of damage. The roofer first traces the water back to where it gets in, then repairs that spot.
Tracing can mean looking at the roof surface, checking the attic from below and sometimes running a water test, where someone sprays sections of the roof while another person watches inside. Not every stain is a roof leak, since plumbing and condensation can look the same.
Roof repair and flashing repair cover jobs where the damage is already known. Leak repair covers the search for it, including cases where worn flashing or shingles turn out to be the cause.
What moves the price
- How the leak is traced
- A look from the attic and the roof surface is the shorter search. A water test or a moisture meter takes more time and often costs more, but it can find a leak a look misses.
- Leaks that come and go
- A leak that only shows in wind-driven rain is hard to reproduce, so confirming the fix may take another visit, and that can add to the bill.
- Damage inside the house
- A roofer's price usually covers the roof. Wet insulation, stained ceilings and drywall are often left for you to repair, or for another trade.
- Cause behind the leak
- A cracked vent boot is usually a quicker fix than worn shingles over a wide area or failed flashing at a wall. The cause decides the repair, and the repair decides the bill.
- More than one entry point
- Water sometimes gets in at more than one place, and a second leak may only show after the first is fixed. Ask how the roofer will check for that.
Getting a quote
Questions to ask each roofing company before you compare prices:
- How will you find where the water is getting in, and is that search in the price?
- If you cannot find the source on the first visit, what do I owe?
- Can you show me what you found before you start the repair?
- Does the price cover only the roof, or also the ceiling, insulation and drywall inside?
- What does the repair guarantee cover, and what happens if the leak comes back?
