Making sure that a leaking roof is prevented or fixed should be a top priority for all contractors and homeowners. A leaking roof can evolve into a disaster which can quickly ruin your home if not handled properly, so you must take every step to combat or prevent the problem.Â

Yes, there is, Dionne. You can opt to patch or caulk the tiny holes on your roof, but it depends on the size and extent of the damage of your roof. You just have to look for the best materials out there, and make sure that you buy materials that can withstand heavy rains and intense heat. Remember, you must do this during the summer season, where there is a minimal chance of rain.

Put the metal roof under the porch eave, rather than on top of the porch roof. If that's what you have, then you might want to investigate pitches and angles of a proper roof...the porch.
