Daylight visible through the deck from inside a Japantown attic is a structural issue, not a covering issue. On most jobs, a musty Japantown attic after rain indicates water getting in somewhere above. As a rule, staining on the fascia of a Japantown property usually means the gutters, not the roof covering.

Japantown Roofing Questions
How quickly can you get to a roof leak in Japantown?
