Roof Maintenance & Repair

You may not realize it but the roof of your house is very important. It protects you and your family from outside elements, like rain, hail, snow and more. The reason why people neglect their roofs is because they think that if nothing has happened yet then it probably won't happen in the future either. This couldn't be further from the truth! Here are some of the most common roof issues:

Age- As a home ages, its roof becomes less efficient at protecting against water damage. Leaks and damage can lead directly into your home's interior and that includes walls and ceilings too! Once there's a leak, you'll have to pay for the repairs and then there's still the inconvenience of dealing with leaks on an ongoing basis. This can cause mold which is very dangerous for your family's health. As soon as you notice water coming into your home or see stains on any ceiling, you should call a roofing company immediately because the longer it takes for them to come out, the more damage will be done.

Weather conditions- If you allow water to accumulate on your roof for an extended period of time, it can corrode the materials and cause serious damage--especially if there's already been some wear-and-tear from weather conditions or other common causes! If this happens, you'll have to deal with not only costly repairs but also the inconvenience of being displaced.

If you live in an area with heavy rain or hail storms, this can put stress on your roofs' shingles. When a snowstorm hits, you'll want to clear off your roof as soon as possible. In most cases, leaving the heavy snow on top of your home for too long can be very dangerous and it could even cause collapse! And if that happens during a storm or when nobody's home? You've got quite an expensive cleanup on your hands.

Wildlife/Pest/Termite infestation- Roof damage can be a breeding ground for all types of insects, including termites! A mere few years after infestation could mean that your home is completely destroyed and you have to start over from scratch. If you have squirrels, raccoons, birds or other animals living on your roof they can damage it.

You also might see moss growing which is not good. This means that the shingles are absorbing moisture and over time this could cause leaks to happen inside of your home.*

If any of these issues are happening, you should call a roofing company immediately because ignoring them will make the problem worse and more expensive to fix later on.

Roofs are very important and they need your attention. If you neglect yours then this could end up costing thousands of dollars in repairs later on!*

Your roof is something that you should never neglect. If it's not properly maintained, it could collapse and cause extensive damage to your property--and even harm the people inside! Here are some reasons why you shouldn't take a chance on skimping out when maintaining your roof:

A home with a well-maintained roof will be much more energy efficient than one with shingles or tiles that are worn down. That means lower heating and cooling bills, which is always great for your wallet!
