Roofing questions in Lehighton

Is hail a real risk for roofs in Lehighton?

It is moderate. NOAA's Storm Prediction Center logged 24 hail reports within 15 km of the area from 2000 to 2024, and August is the peak month. Carbon County's storm records show hail of one inch or larger on 5 events since 2015, with the largest at 1.25 inches. After a storm, call for an inspection and a written estimate.

Are local homes older than homes in Allentown?

Yes, by Census estimates for 2019 to 2023. About 93% of local homes were built before 1980, compared with 83% in the Allentown hub and 59% across Carbon County. The median home here dates to 1947. Older roofs deserve a closer look, so call for an inspection and a written estimate.

Why do roofs here leak?

Flashing, pipe boots and valleys. About 52 inches of rain fall here each year at the nearest station. Water finds every cracked boot and open seam, so the repair starts by tracing the entry point.
