Water Leak In Your Roof? Call An Architect To Find The Source

Feb 19, 2016

So a friend from Staunton called me to ask for a favor. He has a water leak in his roof and after several attempts to plug the leak, there was still a water leak. Using our thermal imaging camera, we are fairly certain we identified the cause of the problem. If we get a good rain I will return to the building to verify the source.

As a reward for my visit, I had the opportunity to visit Emmanual Episcopal Church in Staunton. This structure that was built in the late 1890’s is stunning.
