A leaky roof typically begins as a minor problem but left unaddressed, it will lead to major damage. To prevent hundreds or even thousands of dollars in roof repairs because of something that started as a small leak, it is beneficial to be informed about what to look for when homeowners suspect they may have an issue with their roof. D.B. Gulliver & Son Roofing, the roofing company of Hinesville, GA, for everyone's commercial and residential roofing needs, addresses the basics of leaky roofs and what homeowners should know.  

• Pay Attention To The Signs: When homeowners begin to notice damp spots on their ceiling, it is generally a sign that they have a roof leak. The worst thing a homeowner could do upon seeing something like this is to simply ignore it. Call D.B. Gulliver & Son Roofing at the first sign of a problem to have them thoroughly inspect the roof and diagnose what is happening. From there, they will discuss affordable price quotes for the repair project and help homeowners save countless dollars in long-term damage repair.

• Be Aware Of Other Areas That Could Be The Culprit Behind Leaks: Roofs that have other features such as chimneys and skylights should get extra attention. Windows should be properly caulked to prevent water from seeping in and chimneys, particularly older ones, should be inspected and repaired if necessary. Paying attention to these little things will save homeowners a great deal of time, money, and frustration.
