How to Tell If You’re Dealing With a Leak or Condensation

Wade just upgraded his roof to a metal roof and is noticing some moisture coming from above.

The good news is it’s likely not a leak.  Wade added an ice and water shield under the roof and that should be doing its job preventing a leak. But, the roof may be sweating, and it’s probably the change in seasons that is causing this to occur. Wade needs to plan on installing more ridge or gable vents because the key to stopping condensation on his roof is good ventilation.

Gary is absolutely right to question this contractor.  Without a doubt, a vent should never exhaust hot, moist air into the attic.  The job isn’t done until it’s properly vented through the roof.
