WHYYOUNEEDTO REPAIRTHEROOF A leaky roof first damages the ceiling. Water makes its way from the roof to the ceiling and affects the ceiling plaster and paint. The plaster expands and the paint starts to peel off from the ceiling. This water can damage all the electrical fixtures mounted on the ceiling and can be very dangerous. If the house has a concealed wiring then a roof leak can cause a short circuit too. Water leaking through the roof can easily make its way into the walls and can be a source of seepage and dampness in the house. Constant water intrusion can cause peeling of paint, dampness on the walls, and cracking of plaster. Dampness on the walls caused by a leaky roof is a perfect spot for mold and mildew to grow. The mold then spreads all around the house and can be a cause of serious health issues like allergies, asthma, and respiratory diseases. If the ingress of water is constant then water can easily make its way from the roof through the walls and into the foundation of the house. It can be a very costly affair to repair the damaged foundation. https://www.waterproofing.melbourne
