Ceiling water damage repair questions
How do I know if hail damaged my Oklahoma roof?
Look for dented gutters and vents, missing granules, or cracked shingles, and have a roofer inspect it. Leaks may appear weeks later.
Do Oklahoma roofers need to register?
Yes. Roofing contractors must register with the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board.
Will a water stain on the ceiling go away?
No. A stain means water got through, and the source needs fixing. After drying, the area needs stain-blocking primer and paint, or replacement if the drywall weakened.
Is a sagging ceiling dangerous?
Yes. Wet drywall can drop without warning. Keep people out from under it and relieve the water with a small hole into a bucket if it's safe.
