Roof leaks can be attributed to many problems, but some are more common than others are. Proper diagnosis is required; water will often travel along beams before it is noticeable on ceilings or walls.
Common reasons for roof leaks
Shingles lifting wind damage will eventually lead to leaking. Water can be pushed under the loose shingle and then seep through gaps in the underlayment.
Poor or damaged flashings, the sealing around roof openings, can create major leak problems. If damaged flashing is the cause of the leak, the repair should not be extensive.
Improper installation of roofing systems can lead to early failure and problems with roof leaks. Badly installed underlayment and poorly secured shingles will loosen and tear off.
