Roof leaks can wet sheathing, rafters, insulation, ceilings, and wall cavities. The interior stain may appear some distance from where water entered the roof.
The roof or flashing issue needs to be corrected so the building materials can remain dry after remediation.
Roof decking, framing, insulation, ceiling materials, and nearby wall cavities may all be relevant depending on how long and how often the leak occurred.
Before repainting or repairing finishes, make sure the moisture source is corrected and affected materials are appropriately dried and remediated.
