A huge headache for any homeowner, roof leaks are particularly damaging to the roof. Roof leaks can take many forms and present themselves in several different manners. It's important that homeowners take note of all warning signs to avoid disaster or further damage. Here's what you need to watch out for:* Leaves, dirt, and grime accumulating on the shingles; this is an indication that water is coming in contact with the underside of your roof. * The appearance of blue or black streaks around gutters; this indicates mold has formed on or near your house due to excessive moisture under your roofing material. * Drips coming from the ceiling; these may indicate that water is collecting * Worn shingles and cracked flashings; loose and cracked shingles and flashings should be repaired as soon as possible to avoid further water damage. * Dark spots on your ceiling; these could be mold or mildew growing on your roof or near your roofline. You'll want to get an expert inspection as soon as possible. * Curling, bubbling, and peeling of paint; this will require an immediate inspection by a professional. If allowed to go unchecked, the paint will continue to flake off and cause further damage. A leaking roof can be repaired using specialized techniques. First, you need to determine whether the leak is coming from your attic, soffit, or fascia because each are treated differently. If it's coming from your soffits or fascia, the first thing to do is shut off the water supply. If this isn't possible, then you'll have to cut out a section of your rafters and fix the leak by cutting it out with a saw and then patching it with wood putty or thin shingle overlapping. This process should be performed by a professional as there are several other options that could damage your roof and prevent future leaks. 1.
