Question: We have leaks from the roof where the vents are up in the attic. Looks like during rain and fierce winds, the water has gotten through the stucco and the water is coming through our patio covers and through our kitchen window, and our kitchen light has gotten a stain. — Manny Answer: Manny, the first thing to do is to water test to see where the water is entering, so that you don’t have to guess.

Question: Robert, thank you for everything you do to educate homeowners with repairs to their homes. In a recent article you mentioned that your 33-year-old roof finally needs repairs/replacement. I live in the Valencia area, and my house has a cement shingle roof. The roof is about 25 years old without any leaks. My question is what the average lifespan of this type of roof is. Also, would you suggest that I have the roof inspected this summer even though I do not have any leaks? Thanks for your expertise. — Steve C.
