Interior Signs Of A Roofing Issue

Apr 24, 2018 | Roof Maintenance | 0 comments

Not all roof issues are obvious from the exterior of your home, they can instead show up as stains or wet spots on your ceilings or walls. Ignoring a potential roof leak can cause extensive damage to the wood decking, insulation and of course, the inside of your home! Being proactive and calling at the first sign of trouble can save you frustration and money in the future.

What can make a leak especially difficult to locate is the fact that water doesn’t necessarily drip straight down. It can travel along roof panels or lumber in the attic before dripping onto your insulation and leaving the telltale yellow water spot on your ceiling. That means the leak can be far away from where the ceiling shows damage. Unless you have good detective skills when it comes to roof leaks, you’ll want to enlist a roofing contractor to help track down the cause of the problem.

Should you see this or any other potential issues – fill out the contact form or give us a call!

Post-Installation Inspection & Warranty Registration

Question: What should I do after the roof is installed?

  • Walk the roof perimeter with your contractor (from ground level) for final review.
  • Request all warranty documentation (manufacturer and workmanship).
  • Register your warranty with the manufacturer (often the contractor does this on your behalf). Manufacturers like GAF highlight this as part of a proper system installation. GAF
  • Take photos of the new roof for insurance records.
  • Review maintenance instructions: cleaning gutters, trimming overhanging branches, and checking attic ventilation.
