Discovering an active roof leak requires immediate action to contain interior water and protect your home's structural and electrical safety. First, place buckets or large bins beneath active drips to catch water, and lay down towels to protect flooring. Second, if water collects in a sagging ceiling drywall bubble, puncture a small drain hole in the center to release water safely into a bucket and avoid a sudden collapse. Third, if water flows near electrical boxes or light fixtures, shut off power at the main breaker. You can troubleshoot emergency leaks safely by avoiding dangerous outdoor roof work during storms. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when containing interior water safely until the weather clears allows you to hire a licensed roofing contractor to inspect and repair damaged exterior shingles or flashing.
