Many homeowners ask us about 5 Signs Your Florida Roof Has Hidden Water Damage – Town 'N' Country Roofing because they want a clear checklist and a trusted local pro to call. Here’s exactly what to look for—and what to do next.
5 Signs Your Florida Roof Has Hidden Water Damage – Town 'N' Country Roofing
1) Ceiling stains or bubbling paint
Brown/yellow stains, peeling corners, or bubbling paint often mean moisture is traveling from the roof into drywall.
👉 Act now: Schedule a roof inspection so we can trace the source before it spreads.
2) Musty odors or attic mold
A damp, earthy smell—or visible mold on rafters/insulation—signals trapped moisture.
3) Shingle curling, dark streaks, or granules in gutters
Curled edges, algae streaks, and sandy granules washing into gutters point to aging shingles and water intrusion.
👉 Next step: Request shingle repair or replacement options.
4) Soft spots, sagging decking, or failing flashing
Soft roof areas, sagging lines, or cracked flashing around chimneys/vents let water in.
👉 Fix it fast: Ask for a leak detection & flashing repair visit.
5) Sudden energy bill spikes
Wet insulation loses R-value, forcing your HVAC to work harder.
