Has your roof began to show signs of age and neglect? If so, it is probably time to schedule a professional roofing inspection to avoid expensive repairs or major damage to your property. Generally speaking, it is recommended for homeowners to have their roofs inspected once per year, though other situations such as storms or getting your home ready for sale may require more frequent inspections.
The inspector will come out and inspect the following areas of the roof:
- Missing or broken shingles
- Moss, mildew and mold
- Ventilation problems
- Ripples, blisters and buckles
- Multiple layers of shingles
- No drip edge
- Interior leaks
If you’ve noticed problems with any of these factors but haven’t called a roofer for a more detailed evaluation- its time to pick up the phone. Severely aged roofs often show more then one of these symptoms, and the clock may be ticking on the life of your roof deck.
