Roof leak cleanup typically runs from about $2,000 to $8,000, depending on how much attic and ceiling space was affected, how long the water sat, and whether framing replacement is needed. Water that traveled through a high ceiling or multiple stories pushes the cost higher. A standard homeowners policy commonly covers sudden roof leaks and the resulting interior water damage.
Granite City's older brick homes often have finished basements vulnerable to moisture intrusion from roof leaks and sump pump failures. The area's flat terrain and heavy rainfall during spring create ideal conditions for water to migrate from attics downward through wall cavities.

Granite City's larger Illinois suburb features many older brick homes with finished basements and failing sump pumps. Heavy rains and sump failures lead to major basement flooding.
