What Causes Roofing Leaks in Arizona?

Arizona roofs face unique challenges due to our desert climate. While monsoon rainstorms may be seasonal, the sun’s constant UV exposure, extreme heat swings, and strong winds all take a toll on roofing systems year-round.

Here are the most common issues that require roofing leak repair:

  • Cracked or slipped tiles from thermal expansion and age

  • Lifted shingles or missing granules after high winds

  • Broken flashing around skylights, chimneys, or vents

  • Ponding water on low-slope or flat roofs

  • Clogged drainage systems leading to overflow

  • A/C units or equipment mounted on roofs, which can introduce leaks if not properly sealed

If you see water spots on your ceiling, hear dripping during a storm, or notice sagging areas on your roofline, it’s time to schedule roofing leak repair immediately. Left unchecked, leaks can lead to mold growth, insulation damage, wood rot, and even structural compromise.

The EPA outlines the dangers of mold growth following roof leaks, particularly when repairs are delayed.

Don’t Wait Until It Gets Worse

The sooner you address the problem, the less expensive it will be. A small crack in a tile or shingle might cost just a few hundred dollars to patch — but if moisture gets into the underlayment or wood decking, you may be looking at thousands in full roof replacement costs.

At Castile Roofing, our roofing leak repair process includes:

  • Detailed inspection of problem areas, including attic and interior ceilings

  • Identification of moisture sources — even those not yet visible inside the home

  • Immediate patching and sealing to prevent further water intrusion

  • Assessment of underlayment and decking for hidden damage

  • Clear communication about repair vs. replacement options

Our Proven Roofing Leak Repair Process

Every roof is different, but our approach to roofing leak repair is consistent, transparent, and designed for long-term performance. When you call Castile Roofing, you’re getting more than a patch — you’re getting a complete solution that addresses both the visible leak and the root cause beneath it.

Here’s how we handle every roofing leak repair project:

1. Thorough Inspection

We begin with a detailed inspection, not just of the exterior but also of the attic, ceilings, and walls where signs of moisture might show. We look for soft decking, mold, failing underlayment, and misaligned components that could allow water intrusion.

2. Moisture Tracking

Using moisture meters and infrared imaging (when needed), we identify all areas impacted by the leak — not just where the water showed up, but how it traveled beneath the surface. Many times, the leak starts 4–6 feet away from where it appears inside your home.

3. Targeted Repair

We remove damaged tiles, shingles, or foam, inspect the decking, and repair or replace materials as needed. Flashing is resealed, underlayment is reinforced, and roofing material is replaced to match your current system. For flat roofs or patios, we may also recommend elastomeric coating systems for added protection.

4. Prevention Planning

We’ll explain what caused the issue and provide tips to prevent future leaks — including drainage adjustments, tree trimming recommendations, or annual inspection services.

Our roofers are trained to work with all roofing systems common in Arizona, including:

  • Asphalt shingles

  • Clay and concrete tile

  • Foam roofing

  • Modified bitumen

  • Rolled roofing on patios or low-slope sections

You can learn more about these materials on our residential roof repair page.

Common Signs You Need Roofing Leak Repair

Roof leaks don’t always appear as dripping water. In fact, many homeowners don’t realize they have a problem until significant damage has already occurred. That’s why recognizing the early signs of roofing issues is critical for preventing expensive repairs or even full replacements.

Here are the most common red flags that signal it’s time to call for roofing leak repair:

  • Water stains on ceilings or walls, especially near vents or light fixtures

  • Peeling paint or bubbling drywall inside your home

  • Mildew or musty odors in certain rooms or closets

  • Shingles that are cracked, curled, or missing granules

  • Cracked tiles or displaced flashing around chimneys or skylights

  • Visible sagging on sections of the roof or patio cover

If you’ve noticed any of these symptoms, reach out to Castile Roofing for a professional inspection. Our roofing damage insurance team can also help determine if your repairs qualify for coverage.

Preventing Future Leaks: Our Pro Tips

Want to avoid roofing leak repair in the future? Regular maintenance is the key to long-lasting roof health in Arizona’s demanding climate.

Here’s what we recommend:

  • Schedule a roof inspection every spring and fall to catch damage before extreme weather hits

  • Keep gutters and downspouts clear of debris to prevent water pooling

  • Trim overhanging trees that can drop branches or give animals access to your roof

  • Avoid walking on tile roofs — broken tiles often lead to hidden entry points for water

  • Monitor ceiling corners and attic spaces for signs of early moisture

Castile Roofing also offers affordable maintenance plans. You can inquire during your initial visit or read more under our residential roofing services.

Roofing Systems Most Vulnerable to Leaks in Arizona

Not all roofs handle Arizona’s weather the same way. Based on our two decades of experience providing roofing leak repair across the Valley, some materials are more prone to leaking than others — especially as they age or when poorly installed.

Foam Roofs (Spray Polyurethane Foam)

Foam roofing is common on flat-roofed homes and patios throughout Phoenix and Sun City. While it’s lightweight and offers strong insulation, it can become vulnerable if its protective coating wears off.

Common leak points:

  • Cracks in the foam due to UV degradation

  • Unsealed seams or penetrations near A/C units

  • Pooled water that finds its way into small punctures

If you’re unsure when your foam roof was last resealed, schedule a checkup. Roofing leak repair for foam roofs typically involves re-coating with elastomeric or silicone systems, which we offer.

Clay and Concrete Tile Roofs

While tile itself is durable, leaks occur when the underlayment beneath it fails. We often see this in older homes across Tempe, Glendale, and Goodyear.

Red flags:

  • Slipped or broken tiles exposing felt paper

  • Discolored underlayment or sagging battens

  • Water stains near edges or valleys

Roofing leak repair for tile systems typically includes lifting sections of tile, replacing damaged underlayment, and reinstalling the tiles with fresh fasteners and flashing.

Flat Roofs with Rolled Roofing or Bitumen

Rolled roofing is popular for patios, carports, and flat-roof extensions. It’s inexpensive but not known for longevity, especially when seams start to lift or tear from sun exposure.

What we often find:

  • Water seeping under lifted seams

  • Blisters in the material from trapped air or moisture

  • Flashing failures around walls and transitions

These problems can be resolved with spot patching or full resurfacing — depending on the scope of damage. Our roofing leak repair services cover all rolled roofing systems, including torch down, hot mop, and peel-and-stick membranes.

Myths About Roof Leaks That Could Cost You

Homeowners often delay necessary roofing leak repair because of myths or bad advice. Don’t fall for these common misconceptions:

“It only leaks during really heavy rain — it’s probably fine.”
False. Any leak, no matter how minor, indicates a breach in your roofing system. Moisture can accumulate over time and destroy insulation or framing even without visible signs.

“Tile roofs don’t leak — only shingles do.”
Incorrect. Tile systems rely on the underlayment for waterproofing. If that fails, your beautiful tile surface won’t protect your home.

“I can seal it myself with caulk or roof tape.”
While DIY repairs might seem to work temporarily, they rarely fix the root problem and can sometimes trap moisture inside the roof system, making it worse later.

When in doubt, schedule a professional roofing leak repair inspection. It costs nothing to find out what’s really going on — and could save you thousands later.

Special Considerations for Older Arizona Homes

If your home in Eloy, Mesa, or Casa Grande was built before 1995, it’s more likely to suffer from outdated roofing practices. We frequently find:

  • Improper ventilation that accelerates underlayment breakdown

  • Inadequate drainage causing pooling or premature aging

  • Use of short-life underlayments not rated for desert heat

Castile Roofing has extensive experience performing roofing leak repair on older homes throughout Arizona. We know how to restore your system while maintaining architectural integrity — especially important in historic districts like downtown Phoenix or older tracts in South Scottsdale.

We also stay up to date with current Arizona roofing code updates (see Title 4, Chapter 36) to ensure that any repairs or retrofits are compliant and future-proof.
