Before we can enjoy May flowers, we must endure April showers. Spring is a rainy season for this area, and April showers can be especially tough on your home’s roof. Rain can make your roof more susceptible to leaking and water damage. Having a strong, leak-free roof is essential to avoiding water damage in your home.
Many homeowners choose to investigate roofing replacement in Northern VA in hopes of preparing their roof for spring. Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether your roof needs fixing or replacement. Often, roof leakage has other signs besides obvious water dripping.
As roof replacement and repair experts, we at HB Home Services are dedicated to keeping water damage away from your home through our roofing partner Owens Corning. Here are some signs that your roof is leaking, and you may need to seek Northern VA roofing replacement:
Signs You Have a Roof Leak
- Spots on exterior walls: If there is spotting under your outdoor roof line, you may have a leakage problem where the roof meets the wall. Signs of water damage in this area may point to problems with your roof’s flashing and water protection areas.
- Missing shingles or debris in downspouts: Finding shingles or debris in downspouts is a sign that your roof may be losing material. Patchy roofs are more prone to leakage and water damage. Finding debris in your downspouts is a sign that you may need roofing replacement in Northern VA, especially during our area’s rainy season.
- Water stains: Stains come in many different shapes, sizes and colors. They also can be seen in harder to spot places in the house, such as dimly lit basement corners. If you find water stains in your house, this is a telltale sign of potential water damage to your roof.
- Mold or moss growth on exterior walls: Excess moisture can develop if you have water damage. Moldy or mossy walls can be signs of this damage. This damage is usually caused by a problem with your downspouts or gutters, so water cannot flow correctly.
- Dripping: Water dripping from your roof, either inside or outside your home, is the most noticeable sign of a leaky roof. Dripping can be caused by damaged shingles or an ice dam. As the ice melts over time, it can trickle down to the interior of the house. Even if the dripping stops, it is wise to get it checked to ensure no further damage
