Report stormwater separately from the roof opening
Use Macon Water Authority's reporting resource for a suspected public stormwater problem, but arrange a roofing assessment for the actual opening. A drainage response will not seal damaged flashing. Once access is safe, request a written breakdown of temporary protection, permanent repair and assessment of interior moisture rather than one undifferentiated storm estimate.
