The attic, then the roof
Vents at the eaves and the ridge, the color of the plywood, damp insulation, then the slopes and flashings from outside.

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- Catch the water and stay off the roofA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and nobody on a wet or icy roof. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
- Note when it dripsIn rain, in a thaw, or on a cold dry morning. Rain points at the roof; a thaw points at an ice dam; a dry morning points at condensation in the attic. That one detail saves an hour.

Call (732) 285-6873Note 01How much is an emergency roof repair?
Temporary cover is quoted on its own, on the call, once we know the size of the opening and whether a limb has to come off first. The permanent repair after it is estimated in the $300 to $1,500 Howell band for most roofs. The two are kept separate so nothing big is decided while water is coming in.
Note 02How to do a temporary roof repair?
From the inside, you cannot: you can only manage the water with a bucket and by moving belongings. A temporary repair is a cover fixed over the opening on the roof, and it is not something to attempt on a wet roof, in wind or in the dark.
Note 03How long can you leave a leaking roof?
A small, steady drip in one spot, with the water caught, can usually wait a few days for a proper repair. Water near a light fixture, a ceiling that bulges, or an opening a limb has made cannot. The longer it runs, the more insulation and decking it takes with it.
