He said it would probably need a more substantial repair than he could carry out. He was right, and I had to bring in someone else to do a more complete job six months later. But the simple patching job he did was fairly expensive as well as ineffective.

After applying the stop leak product (Henry's 208R) to the areas pointed out to me and in his report, my roof has stopped leaking. I have also touched up a number of other areas that he pointed out had potential to begin leaking.
Description of Work: There was a leak(s) in our bedroom. I thought I had patched the leaks on our flat roof. Still leaked. Contacted Mark who came over the next day. He surveyed our bedroom and went up on the roof. After analyzing everything, he took me up on the roof to show me where the roof was leaking and what needed to be done. He then told me what product to buy at Home Depot and how to apply the product if I wanted to save money and do it myself.

Excellent in that Mark identified 6 areas of potential concern and after temporarily fixing them, no rain leaked in for the first time in 11 years. I am now sending Mark the estimates I have received from 3 roofers, to get his opinion on which one is covering all the items I need to have done, adequately. I trust him completely. It's taken 11 years, at least 5 other failed contractors and over $7000 in failed repairs to get to this point. I wish I had found Mark 11 years ago. Cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone with a mystery rain leak.
Description of Work: Checked out the roof and interior of the house to determine where rain leak source.

Mark's work is outstanding. As mentioned he was able to diagnose and fix a roof leak already unsuccessfully addressed by two previous contractors. Mark was always punctual, cleaned up after each visit, and did exactly what he said he would do. After the job was complete he called twice after it rained to insure that the leak was fixed; I have never had a contractor follow-up in this way. His cost was fair, always well within his estimate. I would gladly recommend and use Mark .
Description of Work: In the first phase Mark diagnosed the source of a roof leak....where we already had 2 contractors unsuccessfully fix. Mark found the problem immediately upon his inspection. He then came back to fix the leak.

Description of Work: Came to the house to inspect roof for leaks. He was very thorough, had sophisticated equipment to see through the ceiling into the attic / roof. Spent some time on the roof and identified the most likely reason for our leak. Great job. I gave pricing a B because he said it was a flat fee of $550 for 2 hours. First, $225 an hour seems steep. Second, not sure 2 hours was really necessary.

Mark (RAIN LEAK SPECIALISTS) is hands down the most capable and professional contractor we have ever worked with. For 14 years, we have spent well over a hundred-thousand dollars chasing leaks in our home that have eluded the diagnosis and repair efforts of many contractors of differing disciplines. They repaired what wasn't broken and/or failed to find the source of our leaks over and over. A never ending nightmare. Then, we found Mark. Hoping against hope, we called. Firstly, he showed up at our home on time (that never happens). In 4 hours, he systematically pinpointed our problems and consulted us on proper repairs. In addition he helped us to put temporary measures in place to get us through the very next torrential storm that dumped 2 1/2 inches in one night. For the first time in 14 years, we survived a rainy night without it raining inside as well. We found Mark to be accurate in his diagnosis, friendly, honest and a great pleasure to work with. He is a true professional, with excellent follow through, a man who clearly takes pride in his craft that shows in his work.

Description of Work: We had a leak in our roof. Old Spanish house with tiles. I signed up for Angie's list looking for roofers and got Rain Leak Specialist almost by accident. I can not recommend this service more highly. He is a true specialist in this area -- got up onto our tricky roof and diagnoses two spots, like needles in haystacks and then gave me a recommendation on how and who to fix it. One of a kind. Exceptional experience with one of the last real craftsmen in the area.

Bottom line. If you have a leak in your home and don?t know where its coming from or how to fix it?Mark is your man. After the last round of thunderstorms we got a few leaks inside the house. I didn?t want to risk the possibility of future water damage so I started looking for someone to identify the source and tell us how to fix. I?m a believer in finding the right person for the job. I didn?t want my handyman or GC to do a patch job and end up with bigger problem down the road. Called Mark and got same day response. With a name like Rain Leak Specialists, I figured he?d know a thing or two about leaks and wasn?t disappointed. Mark understands rain leaks the way a fireman knows fire. He is knowledgeable and identified the source of our leaks, then took the time to explain the issues and gave us our options. We were lucky that our repairs weren't too big, so Mark was willing to handle it. You can tell he takes pride in his work. He took care to make sure the repairs looked like they were part of the original installation. Professional, Straight forward, Honest and Fair. Highly recommend.

We have a flat gravel rooftop and had gotten other estimates for more elaborate and expensive methods to fix our leak. They also likely would not have worked or even created additional problems. Then we found Mark. Mark showed up on right time and fixed our leak using what became obvious as the correct technique. He really knows his stuff and we even got a rain storm to test it out 2 days later. It worked like a charm. We would use Mark again in the future.

Description of Work: Mark returned my call same day and we made a plan. This was a small 2 hour project. We used Mark to replace a few concrete tiles on our roof. Not his typically service, but we wanted to make sure the tiles were replaced by someone who could tell if the underlayment was in good condition and would see any potential red flags while on the roof. He arrived on time, was professional and took care of the project quickly with no fuss.

Please see above. Never used person.
Description of Work: I didn't use the service. This was primarily due to the incredibly bad phone etiquette of the person I spoke with. I wanted to present the problem we have and instead of listening he barreled right on through making sure he listed every charge there was for the inspection alone. The pricing started at $525 for 2 photos and then a price for each additional photo. He never found out what I was concerned about. Too bad. My job is about a 30 k job.

Response from Rain Leak Specialists & Consultants
This was a false report. I found out what the general issue was as regards his rain leak, told him the general procedure of isolation and then documentation and then proceeded to tell him the rates of leak investigation and documentation of a 2 hour minimum with up to a 6 picture report for $550 and $20/ photo after 6.
