Stonewell Construction · Roof leak repair
Trace the leak.
Repair the roof.
Water can travel before it appears indoors. Review the roof surface, flashing and penetrations before choosing a repair.
Step by step
Start with the water path.
Inspect likely entry points
Review shingles, valleys, pipe boots, skylights and roof-to-wall flashing.
Define the repair
Identify the components included, material choices and any limits of the repair.
Protect and finish
Address exposed decking as agreed, complete the roofing details and clean the work area.
Leak diagnosis
The ceiling stain is a clue, not a repair specification.
Water may travel along roof framing or other surfaces before it becomes visible. Describe where it appears and whether it occurs during steady rain, wind-driven rain or after snow melts. Photos and prior repair records help establish the history without assuming the stain marks the entry point.
Roof leaks and other moisture sources
Roof penetrations, flashing and membrane seams deserve attention, but moisture can also involve walls, plumbing or condensation. The review should explain the likely source and the limits of the proposed roofing work.
If water is entering now
Keep people away from visibly damaged ceilings and affected electrical fixtures. Contact an appropriate emergency professional for an immediate safety issue. Call Stonewell to describe the roof concern and confirm availability; submitting a form does not dispatch a crew or confirm emergency response.

Questions worth asking.
Can a leak come from somewhere else?
Yes. Roof and wall transitions can carry water away from its entry point. The inspection should establish the likely source.
Does a leak require a new roof?
Not always. A localized defect may be repairable; widespread deterioration may call for replacement.
