In addition to your roof, you also need to pay close attention to your gutter system. Cleaning your gutters regularly, especially during the fall is extremely important in preventing damage to your home. During the fall, the leaves and debris from surrounding trees can clog your gutter system, causing water to back up and not drain properly. This blockage can freeze, damaging your gutters and your roof, damaging your home’s exterior, and leading to a bug infestation.
Most vinyl siding needs very little maintenance relative to the rest of your home, but it is important to be aware of the condition of it so that you can tackle any minor repairs as they happen, minimizing the opportunity for the problem to get even worse. Siding is meant to be durable so Mother Nature, pets and the occasional football won’t hurt it but occasionally you will need to replace a piece of your vinyl siding that comes loose. You will need to replace it sooner rather than later so that bugs and rodents don’t get in. Regular maintenance includes power washing your siding once a year to remove the dirt, grime and any bugs that may be hiding in your siding.
The sun has a very big impact on your roof’s lifespan, primarily because of UV rays, heat, and thermal shock. UV rays from the sun wear down your roof every single day, even on cool and cloudy days. The sun’s rays dry out the oils in your roof causing it to become dry and brittle and it eventually causes it to lose its waterproofing qualities. Heat from the sun also accelerates the breakdown process. If it is 90 degrees outside, your roof can reach up to 160 degrees! Heat speeds up the damage done by UV rays and causes the roof to become weak and lose its flexibility. As the air outside heats up and cools down, your roof does, too, causing it to expand and contract every day. This is called thermal shock. Over time, your roof will begin to strain from the thermal shock which could cause the roof to split, resulting in costly repairs.
Not all damage is obvious. We all know when a tree has fallen on our house and we need to have our roof repaired, but more common are repairs we do not notice until weeks or months later. Wind can lift or curl shingles, and strong wind can even tear them right off of your roof, leaving it vulnerable and exposed to the elements. After a major storm, it is imperative to have your roof inspected by a professional roofing company.
When inspecting your roof, you will need to inspect every shingle and look for missing, damaged, lifted or curling shingles. You will also need to look for fungus or algae on the shingles, or rust on the metal areas. Inspect the flashing, mortar and caulking to see if it is deteriorating. If you see any problems in these areas, call a professional roofing company like Brinkmann Quality Roofing to do the repairs, especially if you do not know how to do the repairs yourself. If the repairs are not done correctly the first time, it can lead to costly repairs in the long run!
