Signs Your Roof Needs Repairs
Although the roof is the most critical component of any house, homeowners often overlook it. If you’re not paying attention or having your roof regularly inspected, roof deterioration or damage can occur without you ever knowing about it. Other times, problems will make themselves known.
Here are a few signs your roof needs repairs:
- Water Spots
If you notice water spots on your ceiling or walls, a water leak from the roof is the probable cause. Rainwater can trickle down the attic and seep into the walls or the ceiling and weaken the drywall.
- Sagging
If your roof is sagging, you’ll either notice it from the outside, see it from inside the attic, or feel it buckle when you walk on it.
-
Curled Shingles or Loss of Shingle Granular If the shingles are curling or there is build up of shingle granular in your gutters after a rainstorm, you should have your roof inspected.
- Missing Pieces
If there are missing shingles, shakes, or tiles from the roof surface, they should be replaced as soon as possible to prevent water from getting in.
You should always check your roof after a storm to ensure there is no obvious damage. If there is an extreme weather event, like hail or straight-line winds, you should have a storm repair specialist come out and examine the roof to ensure there is no hidden damage.
