Maryland based Ridgeline Roofers Columbia is reaching out to the local community to explain how a leaky roof should be addressed. The skilled team of professionals at Ridgeline Roofers are committed to providing high-quality roofing services to meet all of their customers’ needs.
Ernest Klebs from Ridgeline Roofers Columbia says, “Leaky roofs are no fun. If you have had the displeasure of dealing with a leaky roof, you know how much trouble and stress they can bring on. Your home should be your safe haven, and when it ceases to be so and the elements invade your home, you need to know what you should do to fix it. The sooner you take action, the more likely you are to prevent lasting damage and return to normalcy as soon as possible.”
As the company explains, roof leaks are most often caused by shingles aging or being damaged. No matter the cause of the leaky roof, however, Ridgeline Roofers Columbia shares a few key actions homeowners should take to manage the situation and minimize any potential damage from the leaking water.
The first step the company recommends is to move or cover important items. Water damage can very easily and quickly destroy precious belongings, and given that leaks can occur pretty much all over the house, it is vital to clear leaking areas of any and all items that can be moved. Once this is done, the next step is to try and contain the leaking water as much as possible. Using buckets and cans to collect the water instead of leaking straight on to the floor is the best way to prevent the floors from being damaged by excess moisture.
In places where there is a bulge in the ceiling caused by water collecting in the spot, Ridgeline Roofers recommends that homeowners relieve pressure by puncturing it and collecting the water safely. This can prevent the bulge from erupting on its own or spreading water elsewhere, causing even more damage. If possible (and safe to do so), it can also help to find the problem area and have it tarped. It is also very helpful to take photos for insurance documentation. These photos can come in handy when filing home insurance claims. Ridgeline Roofers recommends taking pictures of the roof damage, compromised items, areas where there is water damage, and more.
More than anything, it is important to call a professional roofing company immediately. The longer the homeowner waits, the worse the problem could get. Roofing is not usually a job anyone can do by themselves, and repairing a leaky roof is often best left to professionals who know how to assess and repair all sources of the leak and fully fix the roof.
Ridgeline Roofers’ team of experienced roofers are always available to help Columbia residents with all their roofing needs. Whether it is a leak repaired or a new roof installed, the company’s team has the experience and the knowledge to get the job done right. Anyone can get in touch with the company today to start fixing any roofing issues.

I contacted Ridgeline Roofers Columbia, and they came out to inspect the roof. Turned out it was a flashing issue, and a few shingles needed to be replaced. They were able to complete the work that day, which prevented any further leaks.
