How to Spot Roof Damage Without Getting on Your Roof

You don’t have to climb onto your roof to start looking for warning signs.

One place homeowners can check from the ground is the fascia board. Water staining or discoloration along the fascia can be a clue that moisture is getting where it shouldn’t.

In this video, our estimator points out a real example where water staining is visible along the outside of the fascia.

It may not look like a major issue at first, but signs of moisture around the roofline are worth paying attention to. Your home can sometimes show you there’s a roofing problem before you ever see an actual leak.

Take a walk around your home and look closely at the fascia, soffits, and other areas around the roofline. If you notice staining or signs of water damage, it may be time to have the area inspected.
