The Top 5 Signs Your Roof Needs Immediate Attention

Your roof is one of your home’s first lines of defense against the elements. Over time, even the most durable roof can develop issues that, if left unchecked, lead to expensive repairs. At Northeast Roofing Professionals, we’ve seen it all—and we want homeowners to be proactive. Here are the top 5 signs your roof needs immediate attention:

  1. Missing or Damaged Shingles
    If you notice shingles that are cracked, curling, or completely missing, water can easily seep underneath and cause leaks or rot.

  2. Water Stains on Ceilings or Walls
    Brownish stains indoors are a clear indicator that moisture is finding its way in.

  3. Sagging Roof Deck
    A sagging roof can signal structural issues or prolonged water damage that weakens the decking material.

  4. Granules in Gutters
    Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age. If your gutters are full of these coarse particles, it may be time to replace your shingles.

  5. Moss or Algae Growth
    Excessive moss holds moisture against the roof, accelerating deterioration and potentially leading to leaks.

Don’t wait until a minor problem becomes a major headache. If you spot any of these signs, contact Northeast Roofing Professionals for a comprehensive roof inspection and expert solutions to keep your home protected.
