Prepare Your Roof for Spring Storms
As winter comes to an end, the spring rain will begin and when that happens you’ll want a fully sealed roof over your head. That transitionary period of winter snow melting turning into the rainy days of spring will result in a lot of moisture on your roof. Which is why we start seeing a lot more calls for leak repairs. Leaks can cause a lot of damage to your roof and inside your home. So it’s best to be prepared and ensure that your roof can resist all the rain and melted snow.
Should You Have Your Roof Inspected?
Spring rains can also mean spring storms, and high winds and hail can triple the threat of leaks. If you notice any dents or missing shingles, call a roofer right away to have the damage repaired. Keep in mind that if you’ve had leaks in the past, and the roof hasn’t been replaced you stand a good chance of dealing with more of them.
An aging roof is more susceptible to leaks because the roofing materials will have deteriorated and weakened further under any snow. If you have a roof that is clearly past its typical lifespan, we recommend having it replaced with a new, hardier roof system.
Getting your roof inspected is the best way to prepare for any trouble with your roof, and even have susceptible areas fixed before they can wreak havoc on your home. While you might consider waiting on an inspection to see how your roof fairs through the Spring, keep in mind that early inspections and repairs can save you a lot of money by avoiding costly repairs inside of your home as well!
