If you notice brown spots or dampness inside your home, it's a red flag that your roof has lost its integrity to keep water out as it should. To retain your roof's integrity, get a new roof installed. Missing or Damaged Tiles Carefully inspect your roof for missing or damaged tiles. While terracotta and concrete are significantly durable, prolonged exposure to strong winds, heavy rains, and severe weather conditions can take a toll on your roof. If you see tiles that are curling, cracked, or completely missing, it's a sign that your roof's protective layer is compromised. Damaged tiles can lead to leaks.
