Your roof is expected to protect you, your family, and your belongings from the unpredictable elements of Mother Nature. Unfortunately, small leaks within your roof can develop over time and put your home’s safety and structure at risk.

The good news is a roof leak is easy to identify. A thorough inspector will go into the attic with a flashlight after it has rained to uncover any moist areas. The inspector will examine the roof decking and rafters above the spot where the ceiling is wet and follow any water stains up to the highest points. With accurate roof measurements and an understanding of the leak’s origin, the inspector can plan for the next steps.

The bad news is by the time most leaks are detected, some water damage has already occurred. Still, the sooner you act to repair the roof leaks, the less damage you will have to deal with overall.

If your roof is leaking, you must get in touch with a South Florida roofing professional immediately. The longer a leak goes unrepaired, the more water damage your home can (and most likely will) incur. Even if you do not suspect a leak, it is a good idea to schedule a comprehensive roof inspection once a year to check for small, hidden leaks. The inspector may also be able to spot other minor roof issues before they require major roof repair or roof replacement.
