How to Tell if Your Roof Needs Repairs
Your roof is one of the most important components of your home. It protects your property from damage from moisture, the elements, or unwanted pests. Periodically checking your roof will ensure that you catch any issues before they become serious. First, look over your yard and the beds surrounding your house. If you notice missing, broken, or discolored shingles, any bowing in your roof, or any tilting in your chimney, it could be a sign of damage. You also might notice shingle granules around your house or in your gutters. If all looks well outside, head inside. If you see any discolored or wet spots on your ceilings or walls, it could be a sign of a leak in your roof.
The best way to prevent issues in your roof is by arranging for prompt roof repairs. Periodic inspections from a licensed roofing contractor can help catch problems in the early stages so that spot repairs are all that are needed. The best time for a roof inspection is in the fall, before the tough winter weather arrives, or the spring to check whether the tough winter weather caused any damage. Our professionals can perform any roof repairs that might be required.

Why You Shouldn't Wait to Repair Your Roof
You may be tempted to put off roof repairs if they don't seem like an emergency. There are several reasons that you should not do this:
- Roof damage can get worse quickly - Strong winds, rain, ice and snow, hail storms, and other damaging weather elements can make a small problem with your roof into a much bigger problem very quickly. Repairing small problems with your roof before the next unexpected bout of harsh weather can save you a lot of time and money.
- The problem could be worse than you think - Visible damage can only tell part of your roof's story. A thorough roof inspection could reveal further structural problems that should be fixed right away before even more damage occurs. If you notice roof damage, call us right away for an inspection and a quote. Your roof's integrity depends on it.
- Bigger repairs cost more money - It almost seems too obvious to say, but small repairs cost less than big repairs. Repairing small problems with your roof saves you money in the long run. Letting the problem get worse puts unnecessary financial strain on you and your family.
- If damage gets bad enough, you may need a whole new roof - Replacing your entire roof costs a lot more than just making smaller repairs. Don't let your roof get to that point. If you notice damage, fix it before it's too late!
- Roof damage can lead to mold and mildew growth - Part of your roof's job is to prevent excess moisture from entering your home. If a damaged roof lets in enough moisture, your home becomes more susceptible to mold and mildew growth, which can damage the interior of your home and cause respiratory problems for anyone inside.
- Animals and bugs can get into your home through your damaged roof - A strong, solid roof keeps out unwanted pests. If your roof gets damaged, animals and bugs can enter your home through any gaps or cracks and give you a pest problem to take care of on top of your roof repairs.
- Roof damage can cause energy bills to skyrocket - Your roof helps insulate your home. Roof damage can require you to use more gas and electricity to keep your home at a comfortable temperature. Repairing roof damage can keep your energy bills stable and affordable.
