Winter is fast approaching
and now is the time for roof inspection and maintenance. While
the weather is still warm and relatively dry, roof repairs are
easily made. Repairs and preventive maintenance done now minimize
problems in the cold winter months when repairs are harder to
make and usually cause more damage.
Some things to look for are:
Missing or damaged roof membrane
or shingles. Missing or damaged
flashing. Leaks
Leaks that are not repaired
before winter can cause major damage when water trapped in the
roof system freezes and expands. This can cause large splits
or enlarge openings, causing more damage.
Gutters can also be a problem
this time of year. As leaves start to accumulate they can block
your gutters, preventing proper water flow. When freezing weather
comes along, this can cause the gutters to fall down from accumulated
ice. Cleaning gutters after the leaves have fallen can prevent
winter problems and replacement bills.
Peninsula Roofing Company offers
a comprehensive inspection and repair program that takes the
worry from your roof and can help maximize roof life.
