Note 01When to worry about a roof leak?

Straight away if the water is near a light fixture, the ceiling bulges, or the leak grows with every rain. An old, dry stain that has not grown is worth having traced, but it is not an emergency.

Note 02Who to hire to fix a roof leak?

A roofer who traces the entry point before fixing anything. The stain is where water ended up, not where it got in, so a repair made straight above the stain often fixes nothing. Ask how they will find it, not just what they will charge.

Note 03What can I put on my roof to prevent ice dams?

Nothing applied on top fixes the cause. An ice dam forms when heat from the house melts snow that refreezes at the cold eaves, so the lasting fixes are underneath: ice barrier membrane at the eaves when the roof is redone, and attic insulation and ventilation that keep the roof deck cold.
