What Causes a Leak?

Leaks in a roof can have many causes. The most common cause is poor installation or damage to the roof. However, leaks can also be caused by poor maintenance or bad weather.

Poor Installation

Leaks can be caused by many things, but the most common cause is poor installation. If your roof was not installed properly, it is more likely to leak.

Severe Weather

Another common cause of leaks is damage to the roof. Storms can damage your roof and cause leaks. If you live in an area with a lot of severe weather, it is important to inspect your roof regularly for any damage.

Poor Maintenance

Leaks can also be caused by poor maintenance. If you do not keep your gutters clean, they can become clogged and cause water to back up under your shingles. This can cause leaks. Additionally, if you do not regularly inspect your roof for damage, you may not notice a problem until it is too late.
