Why your ceiling has water stains. What roofers might not be able to fix.

Today our team is working on a dormer repair at this Forever Home in Lincoln University PA.
This customer called because of some water stains which had appeared in one of their bedrooms. They have had a couple of different roofers out to try and sovle the issue, but none of them were successful in solving it. They saw one of our videos, and thought it might be a dormer leaking issue. Join us as we solve what others can't and protect your home from water issues. It's not just done, It's #CopeBUILT​!

Those dormers are the dumbest waste of money!

[@CopeBUILT]

I don't like them in living spaces... I'd rather have the full room height, rather than a tiny reading nook.
They aren't bad in attics for allowing in natural light and they help break up a large sloped roof visually so its not just one giant wall... but a reverse gable in the middle could do the same thing.

Is water stains on ceiling always a leak?

[@goosecouple]

Yes.

[@CopeBUILT]

In a basement, it could be condensation from ductwork if you aren't running a dehumidifier depending on which climate zone you are in.
We've also seen bees build a nest in a joist bay, which causes staining on the drywall
Sometimes its a plumbing leak....
But 9 times out of 10... its an exterior water leak either in a roof, a vent, a pipe collar, a window, a siding or stucco issue, etc...
