Roof Maintenance Tips for Spring!

Preparing Your Roof for Spring and Summer..

Ok, enough of the head fakes... Spring really is just around the corner and here are some things to look for to keep your roof looking great and ready for the summer heat and rains.  Your roof may have taken a beating during the winter.  If so, these tips should help you determine what, if anything, you need to do to insure that your roof continues to provide the protection you need for your home and family.

Here are a few spring roof maintenance tips for your residential roof:

• Inspect your roof for any wear around or in the roof valleys. Water runs down these valleys so they tend to be prone to water damage.
• If you have asphalt shingles, then look for cracks in the shingles or curled shingles.
• Examine the areas around the vent pipes and your chimney. Looking for cracks or gaps or missing caulk.
• Use binoculars to examine the trim, flashing and the area around your chimney for cracks, loose shingles and an inordinate amount of wear.
• Inspect the eave overhangs for water staining.
• Inside your home, look underneath for signs of discolored or stained ceilings or for water stains on the roofing material in your attic
  
  Inspecting a roof can present dangers. If you don’t have experience, you may want to play it safe and hire a professional roofer to help you.   Feel free to call the best roofing company in Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, and the greater Hampton Roads area.  We will be happy to serve you!
