What is a roof leak emergency?
A roof leak is a defect in the roof that allows rainwater or condensation to penetrate the roof. This can occur on both pitched and flat roofs and can have various causes, such as damaged roof tiles, torn roofing material, clogged gutters, or faulty connections.
Although a roof leak sometimes only becomes visible later on, it may have already been causing damage beneath the roofing for some time.
Roof leaks are one of the most common roofing problems in the Netherlands, especially after heavy rainfall or storms. Early detection and intervention are essential to prevent serious and costly damage to your home.
Emergency Roof Leak
An emergency roof leak is an acute leak in the roof that must be repaired immediately to prevent further damage to a home or building. This concerns situations where water enters through the roof, for example during a heavy rainstorm or severe weather.
Dakdienst Nederland is available 24/7 for emergency roof leaks.

What should I take into account in case of an (emergency) roof leak?
If you’re dealing with a roof leak, there are a few important things to keep in mind:
-
Don’t wait too long: the longer you wait, the greater the damage and the higher the costs.
-
Check your insurance: some leaks may be covered by your home insurance policy.
-
Watch for signs: damp spots, mold, peeling wallpaper, or musty-smelling attics can indicate a leak.
-
Be careful with self-inspection: climbing onto a roof is dangerous without experience or proper equipment.
-
Combine with roof maintenance: during the repair, have the rest of the roof checked for other weak spots.
