Active leaks obviously need immediate attention – any water coming through your ceiling means you need help now. But other signs are less obvious but equally urgent. Missing shingles leave your roof deck exposed to weather. Damaged flashing around chimneys or skylights often leads to leaks that start small but get expensive fast.
After storms, look for granules from shingles in your gutters, dented gutters or downspouts (signs of hail), or any shingles that look cracked, curled, or blown off. Inside your home, check for water stains on ceilings or walls, especially around chimneys and where roof lines meet.
Don’t wait if you see these signs. Small problems become big problems quickly, especially in our climate. A $300 repair today often prevents a $3,000 problem next year. When in doubt, have us take a look – our inspections help you understand what’s urgent and what can wait.
