Roof Leak Repair

Signs of a potential roof leak!

Signs of a potential roof leak can vary in appearance and may not always be immediately obvious. However, being aware of the following indicators can help you identify a roof leak early, potentially saving you from more extensive damage and costly repairs:

Water Stains on Ceiling or Walls

One of the most common signs of a roof leak is the appearance of water stains, which can look like large puddles on the ceiling or walls, often ringed with brown. These stains may not necessarily be directly under your roof's problem area since water can travel from the leak to another part of the house.


Dripping Water or Puddles

Regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your roof. Roofs are exposed to harsh elements like sun, rain, wind, and sometimes ice. Routine checks and repairs can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems, thereby extending the life of your roof and delaying the need for a costly replacement.

Mould or Mildew Growth

Mould or mildew on the ceiling or in the corners of walls, especially outside of the bathroom where humidity and moisture naturally accumulate, can be a sign of a leak. Roof leaks can allow water to infiltrate your home, creating a perfect environment for mould and mildew to thrive.


Musty Odours

In areas where water has accumulated over time, such as in the attic, a musty smell can develop. This is often a sign of mould and mildew, which can result from a leak.


Missing, Damaged, or Curled Tiles or Shingles

Inspecting your roof and finding tiles or shingles that are missing, damaged, or curled can indicate that your roof is compromised and may be allowing water to enter your home.

Damaged Roof Flashing

The flashing around vents, skylights, and chimneys seals the seams of the roof from rain and weather. Damage to this flashing can lead to leaks.


Sagging Roof Deck

If the decking or rafters in your attic are sagging downwards instead of remaining straight, they may be weakened from moisture infiltration.


Granules in Gutters

For homes with asphalt shingles, finding granules in the gutters can indicate that your shingles are wearing out. While this is not a direct sign of a leak, it can indicate that your roof is aging and may be more prone to leaks.


Higher Than Usual Energy Bills

An unexplained increase in your heating or cooling bills could indicate that water has infiltrated your insulation, reducing its effectiveness.
