What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
- Note when it leaksIn every rain, only in wind, or only in a thaw. Wind-driven rain points at a wall line or a skylight; a thaw points at ice at the eaves.

Call (973) 938-8387Note 01Is it expensive to fix a roof leak?
Usually not. Most leak repairs are estimated at $300 to $2,500, and the fix itself is often a pipe boot, a flashing or a few shingles. What makes a leak expensive is leaving it, because the water keeps working on the framing and the ceiling while it runs.
Note 02Can a leaking roof be fixed from the inside?
It can be managed from the inside: a bucket, a sheet over belongings, and a small hole in a bulging ceiling to let trapped water drain into the bucket, if you can do it safely. The repair itself has to be made on the roof, where the water gets in.
Note 03Who to hire to fix a roof leak?
A roofer who traces the entry point before fixing anything. On a split-level the stain is often a level below the cause, so ask how they will find it, and whether they check the wall line of the level above, not just what they will charge.
