I have a 40x20 addition on the back of my house. 1/3 of the roof is a flat roof the other 2/3's has a peak. The inside ceiling under the peak is wood that has been stained dark, there is drywall over the flat portion... the problem is where the peak is. On hot days, a day or two after it rains the ceiling will drip water. We had a lot of rain early last week, then on on Sunday it was hot and humid. Outside it was over 90 and humid, inside probably between 76-78F. This problem started last year and since the roof was quite old I had the old one torn off and a new one put on. (2 layers on the old one) This does not happen over the flat part, just over the raised area. I wiped it off as best I could but it happened once or twice when no one was home and it dis-colored the wood a bit from the water damage. I thought at first it might be a condensation issue but we've had plenty of hot and humid days with no dripping. It appears to happen only after a good soaking rain.
I've called the contractor who put the roof on and I'm waiting for him to get back to me. Is there anything specific I should be asking him about?
Since the wood was not discolored prior to the new roof being installed, do you think this is something I can hold him accountable for? If not, is there anyway I can fix it?
Thanks.
