Quick Answer

  • One leak on a solid roof: repair the source.
  • Lots of small leaks on an aging but solid roof: clean, repair and recoat.
  • Rust, soft spots or repeated leaks: a metal roof-over is the long-term fix.
  • Water travels, so get the true leak source found first.

When a Repair Is Enough

If the leak is coming from one spot, like a vent boot, a seam or a loose screw, and the rest of the roof is in good shape, a targeted repair is usually the right call. Finding the true source matters, because water often travels before it shows up on the ceiling.

When to Recoat the Roof

Older metal and rubber roofs often develop many small leaks as the coating breaks down. A full roof coating seals seams and fasteners, reflects heat and can add years of life when the roof itself is still solid.

Coatings work best when the roof is cleaned, dried and repaired first.

When a Roof-Over Makes Sense

If the roof has widespread rust, soft spots, repeated leaks or sagging, a roof-over is usually the better investment. A new metal roof is installed over the old one with added framing, which improves drainage and stops recurring leaks.
