Tips for Repairing a Leaking Roof

You've come home after a long day at work, and you notice that your roof is leaking. What do you do? Do you call the roofing company to make an appointment? Do you try to fix it yourself? Or do you ignore it altogether in hopes that the leak will stop on its own? The answer depends on what kind of materials are leaking; if they're shingles, for example, then your best bet might be to wait. But if there's water coming through the ceiling or into your living room, then chances are something more serious is happening and needs immediate attention. Information can be found here.
​
When water starts leaking through your roof, it's important to take swift action to repair the damage. If left unchecked, a small leak can become a big problem, leading to water damage and even mold growth. See here for information about Finding and Fixing a Leaking Roof.

Here are some tips for repairing a leaking roof:
  • Inspect the roof for damage and leaks. Make sure you know the location of all the leaks before starting repairs.
  • Repair any damaged or missing shingles using new shingles of the same type as those on your roof. Nail them in place securely with galvanized nails.
  • Seal any gaps or cracks in the roof with caulk or sealant. Be sure to use waterproof sealant specifically designed for roofs.
