Paying attention to the condition of your roof throughout the year, will pay dividends in the future. Be proactive with respect to roof maintenance and you will reduce future roofing expenses.
Below are some helpful suggestions:
1) Clean gutters and downspouts. Removing debris from your gutters will ensure that water flows freely away from you foundation. This will prevent backups under shingles and ice dam issues
2) Inspect shingles. Look for cracks, curling, lifting or missing shingles to curtail damages.
3) Check Flashing. Inspect metal seals around roof, especially around chimney’s vents and valleys for gaps.
4) Inspect Attic. Look for water stains, mold and signs of pests.
5) Have any trees around or overhanging your roof trimmed.
6) Make sure that any moss or algae be removed from the roof.
7) Schedule a Professional inspect to catch hidden issue and confirm the roof’s overall health.
