An attic leak is easy to miss and expensive to ignore. In Kemah, water from a roof, pipe or AC pan can soak insulation and decking for weeks, then show up all at once as a stained or sagging ceiling.
Homes in Kemah and nearby Seabrook, El Lago and Bacliff often have AC units, ducts and plumbing in the attic, as well as insulation. The pros handle water from any of those sources, plus roof leaks after storms.
