These are the protective pieces along the highest lines of your roof. When they crack or break, they create clear openings for rainwater to seep directly into your home, which can quickly lead to big leaks and damage inside your attic and living spaces.
2. gaps in vent pipes
Your roof has pipes (like plumbing vents) sticking out. If the seal or flashing around these pipes breaks down, small gaps appear. These gaps act like funnels, letting rain pour into your home, often causing noticeable leaks around your bathrooms or kitchen.
3. deterioration of roofing materials resulting from aging.
Due to Malaysia's strong sun, heavy rain, and high humidity over many years, your roof tiles or metal sheets naturally get old and worn. They become brittle and less effective at keeping water out, making your entire roof much more likely to leak.
4. buildup of debris such as twigs and leaves can trap water
When leaves, twigs, and dirt pile up on your roof, especially in valleys, they trap water. This stops rain from flowing off properly, allowing water to sit and soak into your roof, which can lead to rot, mold, and damage over time.
5. clogged gutters
Your gutters are designed to move rainwater away from your house. If they get clogged with debris, water overflows down your walls, soaking into your building's foundation, damaging paint, and even leading to issues in your basement or ground floor.
6. missing or cracked shingles
Each shingle or tile on your roof is a shield. If even a few are blown off by wind, cracked by impact, or break due to age, they expose the layers beneath. This directly invites water into your roof structure, causing immediate and visible leaks.
7. repair leaks on shingle roofs
Even if you only see a small water stain or drip, a leak on a shingle roof often means water is already causing damage beneath the surface. It's crucial to fix these quickly to prevent widespread water damage to your ceiling, insulation, and the growth of unhealthy mold inside your home.
