It's critical to fix a roof leak as soon as possible to prevent additional water damage to your house. Start by identifying the leak's origin, which is frequently shown by mold, water stains, or dampness in the ceiling or attic. Vents, chimneys, and areas with missing or damaged shingles are common places for leaks to occur. After locating the source of the leak, carefully examine the roof's surface for any damage near vents, cracked flashing, or damaged shingles. Replace any missing or broken shingles by sliding a new one in and fastening it with roofing nails. Another possible cause is damaged flashing around skylights, chimneys, or vents.
