Spring is right around the corner. And now that the winter months are finally behind us, many homeowners are preparing for home improvement projects to usher in the new season. While you are getting ready for that landscaping or renovation venture, now is also a great time to show your roof some TLC. Read on to learn some handy tips from the pros on how to get your roof ready for spring.
Winter snowstorms and torrential rains can cause harm to your roof. Walk around your home and look for signs of roof wear and tear. Are there missing, cracked, or curled shingles? Do you notice any holes and sagging areas? Can you see damage to the flashings around chimneys and skylights? If you come across roof damage, take note of it, and discuss your findings with the roofing companies you are considering hiring.
The rainy season can wreak havoc on your gutters. Remove all leaves, branches, and pine needles accumulated over the fall and winter months. Buildup can obstruct the water flow in your gutters which may cause damage to your home’s siding, foundation, and landscaping.
Now that the warmer weather is here, it is the perfect time to trim back overreaching branches. Unkept limbs that meet your roof can cause damage to the shingles, forcing you to repair or replace them. Keeping your roof free of branches now can save you a bundle later.
Once you have done an outside inspection of your home, go inside and check the attic. The underlying decking may have been compromised if you notice any sunlight beaming into the space. Left for too long, punctures can lead to leaking, moisture buildup, and mold problems. Got holes in your roof? Turn to professional roofing companies to repair the damage.
One of the most important things you can do to get your roof ready for spring is to schedule roof inspections from professional roofing companies. Certified contractors have the skills and training to identify potential concerns with your roof system. If there are any, they will recommend a strategy to resolve your roof issues.
