Immediately and set an appointment with one of our roofing experts as soon as possible!
Some Helpful Tips:
1. STOP THE WATER DAMAGE. Once you discover an active leak in your roof, the first thing to do is minimize the water damage as much as possible. Take a tarp and lay it over water entry if you can locate it until one of our experts arrives.
2. CONTAIN THE WATER. Immediately put a bucket or other waterproof container beneath the leak(s) to catch the water. If water splashes onto the floor, put an old T-shirt in the bottom of the bucket to absorb the splash, or try pinning a long string to the ceiling near the leak, so the water will have a path into the bucket. If the paint is bubbling, it’s likely holding water, so puncture the bubble to release the water into your bucket. If you cannot contain the leak... call us for help!
3. REMOVE THE WATER. Once you have the leak under control, you need to thoroughly dry all carpet, furniture, woodwork and anything else that was exposed to water. Not only will water leave a stain, but mostly, you must prevent mold from growing in your home. If your carpet is soaked, pull it away from the padding and expose both sides of the rug and the pad to briskly circulate air. If the damage is extensive, call a professional water extraction company.
