Leaves in roof valleys
Packed leaves hold water against the roof and slow drainage.
Pecan Grove is an established master-planned community near Richmond, close to the Brazos River. Big shade trees are part of its charm, but leaves, limbs and moss can cause roof problems that lead to leaks.
Pecan Grove has been home to families for decades, so many roofs here have already been replaced at least once. Some are due again. Older roofs can show cracked shingles, worn vent boots and tired flashing.
Mature trees drop leaves into roof valleys and gutters. When those fill up, rainwater slows down and backs up under shingles. Branches that rub on the roof can also wear away the shingle surface.
