The sure sign is that every time it rains whether it’s a heavy storm or not you get a leak. If this is happening to you, it is important to contact your local roofer to inspect your roof and find where the leak its coming from so a repair can be made.
- Roof Debris on the ground– If you see torn shingles in your yard especially after a windy day, there is a good chance your roof is showing signs of deterioration.

It means you need to inspect or have a roof professional inspect it to see if the rest if the roof is damaged.

If you see wild life in the attic or where your frame that holds your roof is located, this can cause a ripple effect allowing weather elements to penetrate your roof. If this is the case, you would need to contact animal control and a roofing professional to determine if the wild life damaged your roof.
