Why Should You Have Your Roof Inspected?

There are many reasons that people may choose to have their roof inspected in Ohio, whether it is nearing the end of its life, or it is a new installation. A roof is a sizeable investment, and plays an important role in the value of your home and the safety of your family.

leak assessments

If you suspect, or have confirmed, that your roof is leaking, it is important that you have it inspected as soon as possible. Visible leaks may be a sign of extensive leaking due to failing seams, improper drainage, or other situations. If you can see water damage in one location, it is important to check everywhere because it may mean that there is additional mold or rot.

A visible leak may not even indicate where the actual leak is coming from in your roof, and requires professional investigation to ensure that we know exactly where the compromised locations on your roof are, and what the proper way to fix them is.

weather damage

After a weather event like a blowdown, high winds, or hail, it is highly recommended that you have your roof inspected in case of any damages that occurred. You will be able to do preventative maintenance and immediate repairs instead of having a minor issue turn into a major roof repair.

If you are planning to file an insurance claim, they will require that you have your roof inspected by a professional company to give a detailed report of the damages. However, you may want to have your roof inspected even if you do not intend to file a claim, just to be sure that there is no damage that you missed.

vegetation

Any type of vegetation growth on your roof, like small trees, plants, or grasses, may be signs of bigger issues such as moisture under the shingles or in your rafters. In addition, this growth will ultimately cause these issues as it compromises the seal of your roof by forcing roots through the weather shields.

Vegetation may also just mean leaf fall into your gutters, which causes backups and can cause or exasperate rot and pooling. Gutters should be cleaned often, and we will check on the condition of your gutters as part of your inspection.

routine upkeep

Even a 30-year roof requires routine maintenance, and can save the homeowner a lot of money in the long run if it is done on a reasonable schedule. The cost of an inspection and minor upkeep can keep the overall costs of roof repairs down over the entire course of the roof’s reasonable life, and will greatly increase (or at least maintain) the proper function of your roof.

aging

As your roof ages, it begins to suffer from normal wear and tear, and can lead to bigger issues if not addressed. Even if you buy a 30-year roof, you will still need to ensure that it is performing as expected throughout its lifetime.
