I was told when a roof have dark spots on it, it means that water has gotten under the shingles. Is that ture? If so how would you write it up?

I’ve never heard that. My take on dark spots or streaks is either mold/mildew or a loss of granules.

Or, it is to damn dark to do a roof inspection.
Other than that, I will agree with Chuck.

Barron,
If you are referring to dark stains on the roof often in the form of streaks, it is probably a form of algae that can be removed with some basic cleaning formulas. Any penetrations of mold would be visible under the sheathing from the attic.

Any way you want to say it, the roof is pooched.

Larry, you are not truly saying the roof is “pooched” because of dark staining? If so there are roofs that are gone after 3 - 4 years around this area.

I tried to get a good look at it and I thought I could see a widening of the rain gutters, therefore the dark marking is most likely loss of granules and in HI parlance the roof is indeed “pooched”

Thanks guys
I thought the same thing you all thought that might have caused the black stains. I was told by a realtor that he was told by two HI that it was due to water under the shingles. Also, I was at home when I took that pic.
