The rush of cooler air is welcomed by many in the South, but along with it comes the realization that fall is on the way. The winter season close on its heels. Now is an excellent time to cross all of the home maintenance musts off your busy to-do list. The summer hurricane season wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. There were a fair amount of high winds and storms that might have affected your roof. The only way to know for sure is to have your Huntsville roof inspected and ensure that it is ready for the long cold weather ahead.
Spring and Summer Might Have Done a Number
Although this past spring and summer was not the worst we’ve seen weather-wise, that doesn’t mean that we didn’t have our fair share of storms. As we head into the fall and winter, it’s a good idea to have your roof evaluated to ensure its condition. Taking the stance of “if it’s not broken, why fix it” could leave you with some potentially expensive repairs. Prevention is always the best medicine for home maintenance.
Clean it Up In Huntsville, Alabama!
Nothing can make your home look more aged than an old and dirty roof. As we head into fall and winter, it’s best to have your roof soft-washed. Pressure washing is a serious NO for roofs. Soft washing uses a gentler and safer spray. It also provides industry-approved and environmentally friendly solvents. This treatment eradicates dirt, algae, mold, and debris off of your roof so they can’t cause damage.
Check for Leaks!
It is not easy to know what is happening on top of your roof without getting up on a ladder, which is not recommended. According to the CDC, every year 100 people or more die from ladder-related injuries. Non-fatal injuries cause nearly 200,000 emergency room visits across the country. You can, however, get into your attic and look for signs of water damage and leaks. For extra precaution, you can hire our roofing company. They inspect your roof for signs of excess wear and tear, as well as to spot roof damage and potential leaks.
Batten Down the Hatches
If your roof is getting up in age, then it is reasonable to hire a roofing company to batten down the hatches to secure your roof and home for the winter storms to come. Securing chimney flashing, fixing pop-up nails, and looking for rotten parts of the roof is critical, as is fixing them before they lead to serious and costly roof damage.
