Strong winds, rains, storms, hail and other factors (both related and unrelated to weather) will play a role in the wear and tear of residential roofs. However, with the right steps, you can delay or prevent the deterioration of your roof. Let us tell you how – continue reading this blog!
Remember, the biggest factors that determine the eventual lifespan of a roof are:
*The quality of the materials used for the roof installation;
*The workmanship by the roofing contractor or roof installers.
KEEP IT CLEAN.
Any debris that falls on your roof must be washed or swept away immediately. Debris has the ability to retain moisture and that moisture will lead to the growth of mildew and mold that will gradually act on the roof, leading to its breakdown. Cleaning your roof can be done by yourself, but it is also best to have our roofing experts help you out. You have to make sure that your gutter is cleaned, too.
HAVE YOUR ROOF INSPECTED REGULARLY.
You can easily see debris with the naked eye, but roof damage, however, can be in the form of holes, cracks, and bruises that are hard to detect with just a quick glance. This is why you must take more steps to have your roof inspected closely. One great tool that can help you do it without having to climb your roof is a pair of binoculars. If you do notice something amiss with your roof, give us a call immediately so we can take a closer look.
