Flat Roof Leak Repair for Older Berkeley Homes: What’s Different
Homes built before the 1930s carry their own quirks when it comes to flat-roofed additions.
Many of Berkeley’s oldest homes have had additions, porches, and rear extensions added over decades, often by different owners using whatever roofing approach was standard at the time. That can mean a patchwork of materials and techniques layered over each other by the time we get involved.
Older homes may also fall within a historic district or carry landmark status, which affects what’s allowed for exterior roof work. We check this during inspection so there are no surprises partway through a repair.
