Tips for maintaining your roof
Regular Inspections
It is important to double check that the harsh winter weather has not made any critical or substantial damage to your roof as the nights get longer. Ideally, you should request the services of the same roofer that installed your roof to come out and check it between seasons as they will know what to look for and spot any differences or potential problems straight away.
Focus on common problems
Issues that can are more likely to arise to roofs can be the field – where degradation can occur, or the flashings as they can be a popular area for leaks. Focusing on these issues when you are about to get your roof checked over can make all the difference to the condition and upkeep.
Have only qualified roofers to assist
We cannot stress this enough, that you should ONLY have a qualified roofer to go up on your roof for repairs, production and/or maintenance. This is to ensure that your roof is being looked over by someone who is educated within their field and a professional at roofing.
