Valleys under trees
Leaves trap water in valleys and slow drainage.
Copperfield is a group of master-planned neighborhoods in northwest Harris County, at Highway 6 and FM 529. The first homes were built around 1979. Many roofs here have been replaced before and may be aging again.
Horsepen Bayou and its branches wind through Copperfield, and many streets have large shade trees. Trees are nice, but leaves and limbs can clog valleys and gutters and wear down shingles.
On homes of this age, leaks often come from vent boots, chimney flashing and roof valleys. Past repairs may also hide the real source of a new leak.

Keeping limbs trimmed back helps prevent scraping and leaf build-up. Hire a tree pro for large limbs.
