When your residential roof begins leaking, you must execute immediate containment steps to protect your interior living space and electrical systems. First, position buckets or plastic bins under interior drips and use towels to catch pooling water. Second, if water forms a heavy, sagging bubble in your ceiling drywall, puncture a small hole in the center to drain the water into a bucket and prevent a sudden ceiling collapse. Third, turn off the electrical breaker to any room where water threatens light fixtures. You can troubleshoot emergency leaks safely by avoiding risky roof climbs in bad weather. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when containing indoor water safely until the storm passes allows you to hire a professional roofing contractor to repair damaged shingles or flashing.
