🇺🇸The 4th of July is Tuesday!!!
🎇With such a fun celebration of our country's freedom, you might experience some of your neighbors setting off fireworks!
Damage from fireworks can always be a legitimate concern for a homeowner. The condition of your roof, as well as the areas and elements surrounding your home, can drastically affect the likelihood of damage. When nearby fireworks are set off, there is always a distinct possibility for an ember to land on your roof. What happens next could be anything from a light burning to an extensive fire.
✨Don't worry, there are steps you can take to make sure your home is protected. Preparation is key!
Here are some tips to protect your roof and home:
💥Use a garden hose and water down your roof before the show begins! Things are less likely to catch fire if they are wet
💥Clean out any dry twigs or leaves from your gutter. They have the potential to catch fire in your gutter, which could be devastating!
💥Trim back any overhanging limbs or overgrown greenery near your home and clear all potential hazards. If a firework gets too close, you won't have to worry about something falling on your home or catching fire at ground level.
If you notice deteriorating, or missing shingles, contact one of our roofing experts to inspect your roof and give you peace of mind!
