Fix Leaky Roof Step 3

Inspect the roof, inside and out.

You may not want to do this yourself. Either call a professional roofer, or a handyman if you feel more comfortable. But either way, you must check the roof for obvious sources of standing or pooling water. Make sure the valleys, gutters and downspouts are clear of debris. Any water must flow freely off the roof and away from the house. Make sure all parts of the underlying roof are covered with shingles, and that the water barrier is not exposed in any way. You should note that that the leak may not be directly where you noticed the leak inside the house. For this reason, your professional roofer or handyman must inspect the entire region of the leak very carefully. The attic space above the living quarters should also be inspected. This will give you a better indication of how the water is entering the dwelling.
