We have a flat (sligtly sloped) roof. After months of working with the developer and also a roofer, we have ruled out almost everything as a source of the leak. We are left with some electrical boxes that could possibly be the cause and also a bulkhead duct, both of which are out of the roofer’s area of expertise. Would anyone here on the forum have name of someone who is very good at diagnosing and fixing rooftop issues? I think at this point, since it looks to be from the central air wiring routes and switch boxes I am wondering if it is something an electrician is best to look at.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
A guarnateed roofing system usually includes devices and accessories for pipe penetrations called pitch pockets. If a roofing system like GAF or Grace was used, thats where to look. If a guy just mopped down his own assembly of home depot layers, its a bit more difficult. But nonetheless, it sounds like you need pitch pockets and non-corrosive flashing.
