The Importance of Early Roof Leak Detection
What starts as a small leak can grow into a significant problem, causing mold, rot, and costly structural repairs. Here’s why early detection matters.
Signs of a Roof Leak
Spotting leaks before they worsen starts with identifying these common signs:
- Discolored Ceiling Areas: Noticeable water stains may indicate a roof leak that requires immediate attention.
- Water Inside During Rain: Water dripping inside is a sure sign your roof needs attention.
- Damaged Shingles: Damaged or loose shingles expose your roof to potential leaks.
- Musty Odors: Musty smells or visible mold in the attic or on walls suggest water accumulation.
- Roofing Debris in Gutters: Loose granules in gutters point to worn or damaged shingles.
