How to repair water Damage Ceiling 

It is not essential to call an electrician or roofing contractor for fixing all your issues although it is quite simple to sort out ceiling leaks. To fix roofing leaks you have to arrange tools and supplies including a flashlight, small piece of wire, ladder, roofing cement, and caulk gun, putty knife, replacement shingles, flat pry bar, roofing nails, and Hammer. One of the most important things is to identify the location of roofing damage and if there is no visible damage, the cause of your leak is likely due to a problem with your flashing, shingles, or vent gaskets.

Use a stable ladder, to gain access to your roof and patch the damaged area with the use of small punctures but in case of large damage, you have to carefully pry up surrounding shingles and remove the roofing nails by using a flat pry bar, remove the damaged shingle, then slide a replacement shingle in place and attach it. If the leak is directly below your bathroom then you have to mark the affected area of your ceiling and remove it for obtaining a better look at your leak. Dripping that occurs in the front of your tub can be repaired by disassembling the drain trap and replacing the drain assembly.

If the drain trap is below the tub due to losing connection, the drain pipe might be leaking the water. You will observe the water dripping down from the drain trap while running water in the tub. To fix this problem, you have to tighten the drain connection by using channel lock pliers.

If the metal trap is faulty you need to replace it with a new plastic drain trap assembly. Kitchen fixture leaks problems can be sorted out by looking for leaks in the drain fitting, shutting off valves, and water supply pipes.
