Warning Signs on a Home Roof
When It Is Time to Call
Missing or creased shingles after a storm, granules at downspouts, ceiling stains, a sagging roofline, loose flashing, mold on attic decking, and leaks that come back after a repair all deserve a closer look. If water is coming in and it is safe, move belongings, set out buckets and stay off the roof.
Never climb onto a wet or damaged roof, and keep away from water near ceiling lights or outlets. Gutters and siding are not covered here. Renters should contact their landlord first.

Older Roofs and Shared Buildings
Only 12.9% of Palm Bay's homes were built before 1980, but many roofs from the 1990s and 2000s have taken years of sun, heat and storms. Owners of townhomes or duplexes that share a roof should talk with neighbors or the association before work begins.
