The Risks of Ignoring Roof Leaks
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
Roof leaks often show telltale signs. Here’s what to look for to catch them early:
- Water Stains: Yellowing or dark spots on your walls and ceilings suggest water seepage.
- Visible Leaks: If you see water dripping indoors during a storm, it’s time to investigate.
- Broken or Missing Shingles: Inspect for worn-out shingles that may let moisture in.
- Fungal Growth: Fungal growth indoors is often caused by persistent roof leaks.
- Roofing Debris in Gutters: Shingles shedding granules is a warning sign of aging or damage.

Hiring a roofing expert ensures thorough repairs and long-term protection. Here are the advantages:
