What to do right now
Water dripping from the ceiling
- 1Put a bucket under the drip and move furniture, electronics, and rugs out of the way.
- 2If water is anywhere near a light fixture, ceiling fan, or outlet, do NOT touch it. Go to your breaker panel and shut off that room's circuit.
- 3If the ceiling is bulging or sagging, it's holding a pocket of water. From a safe distance and angle, poke a small hole at the lowest point with a screwdriver to drain it into a bucket, so it doesn't let go all at once.
- 4Take photos and a quick video before you clean up, for your insurance.
How I pick these pros
Most “best pro near me” lists are just ads. Whoever pays the most sits on top. I think that's backwards, especially when your house is flooding at 2am. So I do it the other way around.
They earn it with real work, and they can lose it the same way. That is the whole point.

We start from the highest-rated roofing pros in the area, drop anyone below the local average, and rank what is left by real ratings and review volume. As homeowners tell us how each job went, those real outcomes move the rankings. Pros never pay to rank higher.
What should I do before the pro arrives?
Follow the step-by-step above. Acting in the first few minutes, like shutting off the water or flipping the right breaker, often limits the damage and the final bill.
