What to consider

A roof leak may originate from coverings, flashing, valleys or a flat-roof junction. Water can travel along roof layers before appearing indoors, so repairing the spot directly above a ceiling stain may not resolve the cause.

01

Investigating the pattern

Note whether the leak happens during heavy rain, wind or prolonged wet weather. The location and timing help guide an assessment, although concealed defects may need further investigation.

02

Repairing the entry point

Depending on the findings, work may involve coverings, flashing or a membrane detail. Surface sealant alone is not automatically an appropriate long-term repair for a failed construction detail.

03

After the roofing work

Internal finishes may need time to dry and separate repair. Continuing dampness should be investigated rather than assumed to be another roof leak; condensation and other moisture sources can look similar.
