Roofing

My roof is leaking — what should I do right now?

An active roof leak needs immediate action to limit damage. Here's what to do right now and how to get it fixed fast.

Most common causes

  • 01Missing or damaged shingles
  • 02Failed flashing around chimney, vent, or skylight
  • 03Ice dam (in cold climates)
  • 04Worn or cracked pipe boot
  • 05Valley flashing failure
  • 06Storm damage

What to do right now

1
Place buckets under active drips immediately
2
Move valuables and electronics out of the affected area
3
Take photos of all interior damage for insurance
4
In the attic: find the entry point and note its location — measure from a known reference point
5
Do not walk on the roof if it's wet or steep

When to call a professional

Call a roofer immediately — roof leaks cause structural damage, mold, and ceiling failure quickly. Most roofers can place an emergency tarp within 24 hours.
