- Check Ceilings and Walls: Water spots on the ceiling or walls can indicate a roof leak.
- Examine Roof Exterior: Look for damaged shingles, cracks, or missing tiles.
Clean and Maintain Gutters: Clean gutters are essential for preventing water damage and maintaining the structural integrity of your roof.
Gutter Maintenance Tips:
- Remove Debris: Clear leaves, twigs, and other debris from gutters and downspouts.
- Check for Leaks: Inspect gutters for leaks or rust and repair them as necessary.
- Ensure Proper Drainage: Make sure water is draining away from the house foundation.
