A small drip is a timber rot and mould problem waiting to happen.
Water reaching structural roof battens begins rotting them within weeks in Melbourne's climate, and it happens silently, in the dark, behind your ceiling. Black mould (Stachybotrys) can colonise wet insulation in under 48 hours and requires licensed remediation once established. By the time a water stain appears on your ceiling, the damage behind it is typically 3–5 times larger than the stain suggests. A targeted repair that finds and seals the actual entry point stops the cascade at the source. Covering it with a second layer of silicone is not a repair; it's a delay.
