Roof and Ceiling Leaks

Roof and ceiling leaks are stressful — water dripping from your ceiling is alarming, and the source is often far from where the drip appears. Water travels along rafters for feet before finding a gap.

Most roof leaks originate at penetrations: vent pipes, chimneys, skylights. Flashing failures, ice dams, and condensation are hidden culprits behind many ceiling stains.

These guides help you trace water to its source and decide between DIY sealant and calling a roofer.
