Roof problems are a common issue in UK homes, particularly in older properties exposed to heavy rain, strong winds and changing temperatures.
Because the roof is the first line of defence against the weather, even small defects can allow water to enter the building structure. Over time this can lead to damp, ceiling stains, mould growth and structural damage if not repaired.
Understanding the most common roof problems and their warning signs can help homeowners identify issues early and prevent costly repairs.
