The Importance of Weatherproofing Your Roof
Your roof works tirelessly to protect your property from the elements. Weatherproofing your roof is key to its longevity and protecting your home or business from costly repairs.
How to Tackle Seasonal Roof Challenges
Seasonal weather can be tough on your roof. Here are some expert tips to help you keep your roof protected year-round:
- Winter: Snow and ice can accumulate on your roof, causing potential damage. Use a roof rake to remove snow and make sure your gutters are clear to avoid ice dams.
- Spring: Spring brings storms that can uncover weaknesses in your roof. Inspect for loose shingles and ensure water drainage is working properly.
- Summer: Summer heat can lead to roof material expansion and cracking. Schedule an inspection and ensure ventilation is up to standard to prevent heat-related damage.
- Fall: Autumn leaves can clog gutters and cause water damage. Clean out gutters regularly and inspect for damage to prevent issues during the colder months.
