A beautiful strong Roof is like an umbrella that withstands the toughness of all seasons. Like other walls, roofing needs extra care and maintenance as it is exposed to various climatic conditions.

Before the first raindrops start in the lovely house you live in, you need to focus on Ceiling repair. In a storm damage to a roof might be more extensive, as even whole portions might not be there in case the battens get spoiled, causing the shingles and tiles to fly off the roof. In many severe cases, the wooden under-structure of the roof can get damaged and risk the structural integrity of the whole house. No matter what is the degree of damage, if you figure out problems with your roof in the primary stage, you need to take immediate action and stay fully prepared.

Why is repairing a damaged ceiling crucial?

1.    A ceiling that is leaky can damage the house structure in many ways, it affects the paint and plaster of the Ceilings. The plaster expands and the paint starts to peel off from the ceiling.

2.    The water damage caused to the ceilings can also damage all the electrical fixtures mounted and can be very dangerous. If the house has a concealed wiring then a roof leak can cause a short circuit too.

3.    Water leakage through the roof can easily make its way into the walls and can cause seepage and dampness in the house. Continuous water intrusion can cause peeling of paint, dampness on the walls and cracking of plaster.

4.    When dampness on the walls is caused by a leaky roof it gives way for mould and mildew to grow. The mould then spreads all around the house and can be a cause of serious health issues like allergies, asthma, and respiratory diseases.

5.    In case the ingress of water is continuous, then water can easily make its way from the roof through the walls and into the base of the house. It can be expensive to repair the damaged foundation.

6.    A leaking roof can cause permanent damage to the structural integrity of a house.
