If you leave a leaking roof unattended or unrepaired for too long, it can end up damaging the furnishing and the foundation of your house, which in turn might cost an arm and leg to repair, provided it can be mended.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, here\u2019s a list of some common causes behind roof leaks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Broken Flashing&nbsp;<\/li><li>Clogged Drainage System&nbsp;<\/li><li>Damaged Shingles&nbsp;<\/li><li>Faulty Skylight&nbsp;<\/li><li>Leaking Exhaust&nbsp;<\/li><li>Roof Holes&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Broken Flashing&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Broken flashing on roof\" class=\"wp-image-89514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-A-13-05.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Broken flashing can be a host for leaking roof<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There might be a horde of reasons behind a dripping roof, but the most common is a broken flashing. If you do not know what flashings are, let us describe it for you. Flashings are made of metal and are installed under joints to support the structure of the roof. These joints are sealed with fibre membrane to prevent the water from seeping through the ceiling and damage the furnishings below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We all know that tar and mastic can corrode over time due to bad weather and heavy rainfall. Owing to such conditions, the flash starts to form large cracks, which results in a leaking roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tip: Keep checking your roof timely and fix the tar or mastic as soon as it begins to corrode. If you notice any cracks in the flashing, call a professional to replace it immediately.&nbsp;<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clogged Drainage System&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A clogged drainage system is one of the most common causes behind roof leaks. We know for a fact that water is the stealthiest rival, and it is always eager to seep through even the toughest parts of your home. A clogged drainage system can disturb the plumbing system of your house, ultimately causing the ceiling to drip.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tip: Broken toilets and sinks can lead to a leaking roof in your house.

Just like any other furnishing in your house, they also have a limited life and need replacement and timely maintenance. Since they are a barrier for water and they stop the water from leaking into your ceiling, they need to be in top shape at all times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tips: Shingles and tiles laid over your roof should be checked regularly. We\u2019d recommend having a fortnightly inspection for missing shingles and replacing them as soon as possible. Repeat the same after a storm or a heavy rainfall.&nbsp;<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Faulty Skylight&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The flat windows on your roof are otherwise known as skylights. They are protected by screws and sealed with flashing on your roof. Just like windows, they bring great benefits to your homes, such as natural light and ventilation. Besides benefits, they can also be a common cause behind a leaking roof, when they develop a fault or break.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The skylight can get broken if it isn\u2019t installed or sealed properly. As a homeowner, you should be vigilant when you are getting a skylight installed or fixed on your roof. We\u2019d recommend working hand-in-hand with experts, take correct measurements, and make sure that it is adequately sealed after installation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tip: Many homeowners do not know that the seal around the flange decays with time, and the glass can dry out. Check the skylights monthly or after bad weather for cracks near and within its frame. Water leaks can also sprout down the sides of the poorly fitted frame. As such, get it reinstalled if the problem persists.<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leaking Exhaust<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Spots of leakages on ceiling \" class=\"wp-image-89513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/7-Common-Reasons-for-Roof-Leak-B-13-05.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Roof leakage is also caused by fractured exhaust <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Roof vents are used to expel trapped heat and moisture in your house. They are also installed to limit the chances of mould [if working properly]. In case they get broken, they allow water to make its way to your roof and wall, which can turn your abode into a mess of mould and other infestations.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tip: If you notice dark spots around your roof, it is time for you to spring into action.

Roof holes and dents are also among the most frequent reasons for roof leaks. The holes are usually caused by bad weather or a stray animal such as squirrels or cats. Roofs are also prone to house infestation, which is known to survive by damaging the foundation. This damage can cause a dent under the ceiling, which results eventually in a big hole.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Maintenance Tip: Roof dents can stay undetected, living for years until an inspection reveals them.

We have discussed some of the most common reasons for roof leaks in this post, along with their maintenance tips.
