What to do if your roof is leaking - West Texas Commercial Roofing

Wear and tear can lead to leaks, which, if left unchecked, can cause significant damage. Understanding the causes, signs, and solutions for roof leaks is essential to the integrity of your roofing system. With regular maintenance and prompt repairs, you can ensure your roof stays in top shape, protecting your property for years to come.

What causes leaks?

    Damaged flashing, roof membranes, or shingles are common causes of leaks. However, property owners tend to notice damage after heavy rain, hail, or wind. By scheduling regular maintenance, you can ensure your roof’s safety in all seasons.

    How do I identify leaks?

      Water damage is a common sign of leaks. Check your property for water-stained walls, ceiling cracks, mold, or mildew. If you notice pooling or dripping, talk with your roofer for guidance. 

      How do I determine the extent of damage?

        Schedule a roofing inspection to assess major and minor damage to your roofing system. To identify damage, check for curling, missing shingles, or rot.

        Can I wait to fix leaks?

          Delaying roof repairs can lead to more damage and higher costs in the future. Contact your roofer promptly for an inspection to check for cracks, rot, and pooling.
