What you can do now to prevent further damage

Having a professional roofer help with this task is usually the quicker and safer option. However, there are some steps you can take to help prevent further damage before your roofers arrive.

Place a bucket beneath the water leak
The first priority should be to limit the water damage until you can find and fix the leak. Place a bucket on the floor beneath any dripping water to catch it and prevent a wet floor or further damage.

If you can, move furniture, rugs, personal belongings, and other items out of the room to help prevent damage by water or falling debris.
