Roof leaks are a cause of damage within houses. The leak can cause serious destruction to your roof as well as cause mold to grow inside your attic. In this video, we will explain how to detect any leaks on your roof and how to close it fast.
The use of a garden hose and an eye for detail is a simple and effective method to identify the source of a leak. The person who is on the roof and spray it down area-by-area with the water hose. The other person will sit in the attic area and keep an watch for leaks.
A few guidelines are needed to make sure this test is efficient. Begin at the base of the roof and begin to work up the roof slowly. Apply the spray at all angles since the leak could be located in the area which only begins to leak once water comes into contact with it in a certain way.
When the helper on the roof spot the leak, they will have to direct you across the leak, which can be difficult. You could either purchase walkie-talkies in a couple of pairs, or even your mobile phone to connect with each other.
After you have reached the location of the leak, inspect the underside of the shingles if necessary until you find the hole. You can plug it and call an experienced roofing contractor in your area for an effective fix. Click the above video to read more about.
