What is the most common type of defect associated with roof vents?
  1. Water leakage
  2. Poor ventilation
  3. General deterioration
  4. Weather damage
Explanation
Answer: A - The most common type of defect associated with roof vents is water leakage. Although this is rare, it is possible that the joint that connects the vent to the roof will weaken and allow water to seep under the roof. You can identify this defect by searching the roof deck for water stains. Stains are observable in the attic.
