How Often Do You Think About Your Roof?
How often do you think about your roof?
Like most homeowners, you probably only think about it when there’s a problem. Maybe you noticed an interior leak or perhaps a recent hailstorm raised your concerns about the integrity of your roof.
A yearly inspection helps homeowners avoid costly, extensive roofing work. An inspection uncovers little problems before they become big ones—saving money, improving energy efficiency, keeping a home waterproofed, and increasing interior comfort.
What does an inspection look for?
- Moss or algae
- Cracked, loose, buckling, or missing shingles
- Rusted flashing
- Wet and/or rotten decking
- Damaged boots near vents
- Damaged or inefficient vents
- Missing caulk
- Chimney cracks
- Loose gutters
- Sagging spots
A roof not only protects your home from the elements, but helps mitigate energy costs. An efficient ventilated roof lets hot air escape, reducing the impact on your air conditioning system. During winter, ventilation and insulation keep the roof cold—meaning that snow won’t melt, refreeze, and form ice dams.
