Hampton is a narrow river village strung along the Mississippi, with a mix of older river cottages and newer building set back from the water.
River Cottages Grow
A lot of property along this stretch started small and was added to. Enclosed porches, added rooms, attached garages. Every one of those creates a roof to wall junction, and those junctions are where these houses leak.
Low slope additions wrongly covered in shingles are common here and they are worth checking before chasing a leak anywhere else.
What We Get Called For in Hampton
- Roof to wall junction leaks on added on river property
- Low slope additions that should never have been shingled
- Wind damage off the open river
