As important as roofs are to a building, they are very often neglected. Serious problems may be overlooked or underestimated until large cosmetic or structural damage occurs that can no longer be ignored. Don’t let things get that far with your roof by ignoring the telltale signs of issues requiring professional attention.

Here are some times and scenarios when it would be wise to call a licensed roofing technician:

• An aging roof: While the numbers may vary depending on the material used for your roof, the average lifespan of a roof is about 20 years. If your roof has reached this mark, it may be time to have a professional inspect its condition. We can check for damage due to aging or wear and tear and determine whether it needs some minor maintenance or a major replacement.
• Cracked or missing shingles: Over time, your roof takes a beating. If you have a shingle roof, it’s not uncommon for the shingles to become dislodged or damaged. If you notice shingles have fallen off your roof, contact a professional right away to determine the best course of action.
• After a storm: Severe thunderstorms, high winds, and other turbulent weather can take a toll on your roof. Even if you don’t notice any leaks or problems overtly, having a professional check the state of your roof following a storm can give you peace of mind that all is well or if there are issues that need to be addressed.
• Water leaks: Even a small leak shouldn’t be ignored as the water damage from it can impact your roofing system over time. Look for water damage to your ceiling or in your attic. Fixing the leaks early can spare you an expensive repair bill.
• Mold growth: Often a byproduct of a water leak, water damage can fester into an outbreak of algae, mildew, or mold. Mold in particular can be a serious health hazard that may require a full roof replacement if the growth is severe.
• Your roof is sagging: Roofs should stand tall and firm, if it is sagging in any way, this indicates a major structural problem. Such as a damaged beam or poor support. Calling a technician right away is a must to preserve your roof’s integrity.
• Higher than normal energy bill: High energy costs can happen for a number of reasons. If your usage habits have not drastically changed, factors like a poorly ventilated roof may be a likely reason for the increase. Our roofers can check your roof’s insulation and siding to determine if repairs are needed.
