The Best Time To Fix Your Roof Is Now!

Your roof is not a project that can be left for a rainy day (literally). If your roof has taken a beating this winter, you’ve noticed a leak or some missing shingles, then now is the time to take action. If you delay and delay and put a roofing repair project on the back burner, you risk getting burned. If you wait too long a simple repair could end up costing you more money and headache. Roofing issues tend to get worse over time. Dealing with them now allows you to put your roofing problems in the past.

Top 4 Reasons Spring is The Ideal Time For Roofing Repair Projects

If you are still thinking about doing some roof repairs this spring, we’ve put together some reasons to sway you to take action now. Here are the top 4 reasons spring is the best time to handle your roofing repair projects:

Identify issues caused over the winter

The cold temperatures, ice, snow and freezing wind can all cause damage to your roof, especially older roofs in need of replacement. Addressing your roofing issue in spring allows you to quickly fix the issues before they become a bigger problem. A minor leak that may have developed over the winter could turn into a huge issue once the spring and summer rain falls. Leaks only get worse.

It’s ideal weather for repairs

The temperature matters. The spring is the ideal time for using roofing materials. The installation of shingles and other roofing materials react best to weather conditions in spring – it’s not too hot or too cold. This allows your roof repairs to be more effective and efficient. The temperature will have less impact on the integrity of the roofing materials being used.

Time is on your side

While you may have identified a potential roof repair, you never know what you may find until a professional takes a look at your roof. The damage could be more extensive than you first anticipated. Addressing roofing issues in spring affords you more time and flexibility to deal with unforeseen issues. If your quick roof repair turns into a full replacement job, you will have the time to properly plan and prepare for it.

It’s easier to schedule roof repair

Spring tends to be a little quieter than the summer and fall months. You tend to have fewer plans and roofing companies have more flexibility in their schedules. During the spring there is more flexibility in scheduling. You can plan around your summer vacation and days off and have your choice of appointment options.

Give us a call and we may be able to fit you in for your repair quicker than you think. Plus, if you wait too long, you may have to end up waiting to get your roof repaired. Our schedule books up quickly so taking action in spring is best.

Some roof leaks are not obvious from outside. The signs exist within your home. Here we will provide you with some useful and effective tips to check from the inside if your roof is leaking.

In-Home Roof Leak Inspection

The truth is roof leaks can be difficult to find. The place you find water is not often the source of the actual leak. Most roofers will tell you that if you want to find the leak, you need to think like water.

Water typically penetrates your roof in the obvious places:

• Where outside roof damage exists
• Roofing seams and flashing
• Vents
• Skylights
• Chimneys

Once water actually gets into your home it will flow along the rafters in your attic and along the ceiling until it finds a place to fall. You can expect it to flow downward. This means that the source of the leak can be across the other side of the house or within a few feet of the drip depending on your roofing structure.

The attic is the best place to start your inspection. Ideally you can perform your check during the day. Since its dark in the attic if you have a hole in your roof, you’ll be able to see sunlight shining through.

If a hole is not obvious, walk around your entire attic. Identify areas that have water penetration, water marks and stains. If the presence of water is not immediate, follow the smell of water and mustiness.

If you find an area where water is dripping, use this as your starting point and work your way up the roof. Follow the trail of water, moisture and dampness.

If you can’t find the leak, you best option is to cover you roof with plastic roof covering. Better yet, call a roofing professional to help you address your roof leak.

The post In-Home Roof Leak Inspection – How to Check From Inside Your Home if Your Roof Is Leaking appeared first on Cplus Roofing.

While most roof leaks are obvious, they occur directly after a storm or are a result of wind damage, there are instances when roof leaks exist without homeowners even knowing it.

The truth is most roof leaks are undetected until it is too late – when you find evidence of water penetration inside of your home. At this point, the leak has existed for some time and damage could be extensive. It could have also spread to multiple areas of your home.

This is particularly the case with older roofs. They are more prone to roof leaks, especially those that are in need of a re-shingling or replacement. But roof leaks can also happen on new homes or recently replaced roofs if the workmanship is not up to par.

To help homeowners manage this stressful and undesirable situation, we have put together a list of 3 essential tips to help you survive a roof leak:

Be Proactive

Being proactive and dealing with the roof leak as soon as you identify it is vital. If left unattended, it will only cause more damage to your home and potentially create more issues. Roof leaks can lead to attic and ceiling damage, cause mold and mildew to grow and affect indoor air quality, pose a threat to electrical wiring, and it will also make your home less efficient.

Be ready to address a roof leak right away. Spend some time and research what to do when you find a leak and how to address it before you can get a professional to take a look.

Leave It To The Professionals

Speaking of professionals, its best to have a professional roofing company assess your roof leak before choosing a course of action. The issue could be minor and require small repairs or it could be extensive and require a roof replacement. Always get a professional opinion before taking action.

Be Financially Prepared

A roof leak could be an expensive repair job. Therefore, it’s important for homeowners to be prepared financially for roofing and all other types of home issues. Having an emergency home fund and know what type of roofing damage and leaks are and are not covered under your home insurance plan allows you to be financially prepared for these types of situations.

Check Eaves and Downspouts

Inspect your eaves trough and downspouts to make sure they are operating as they are supposed to. If you notice an issue, make sure to have it addressed as soon as possible. Never overlook the importance of proper water drainage off of your roof. If water isn’t draining properly off your roof, its likely going someone you don’t want it to go.

Make Sure Flashing Is In Good Condition

Flashing is the aluminum pieces that exist at the seams of your roof. Make sure they are properly installed and secure. They are a common source of roofing leaks. If you notice issues, have your flashing replaced. Wind and winter weather can cause damage to flashing.

Check Your Roof Insulation

Roofing insulation can play a big role in protecting your roof against leaks, ice damming, and other issues caused by winter weather. Make sure you have a good thermal barrier inside your attic to prevent the development of moisture inside your home.

Here we outline some of the most common types of worn out shingles and if they signal the need for a roof repair or replacement:

Missing shingles

Entire shingles or sections of shingles can blow off of your roof during storms. If you notice you are missing shingles, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need a roof replacement. In most cases, a simple repair job will do the trick. But, if you notice shingles continue to fall off, then you may need a complete replacement because there may be additional issues.

Cracked shingle

Cracked shingles are also common. This is usually a result of wind and storm damage. Again, if only a few are cracked or curled, you can simply have them replaced. But, if you notice cracked shingles across your roof, you may need a replacement.

Worn off granules

Granules are the sandpaper type material that is on the outer layer of the shingles. These help protect your roof from the sun. If you notice the granules wearing off you may or may not need a roof replacement depending on the age of your roof.

Shingles covered in moss

Many homeowners get really concerned when they see moss growing on their shingles. This is actually really common and there is no need to worry. If you don’t like the look, you can wash it off with a water and bleach solution. Never use a power washer on your roof. You could cause damage to your shingles that could result in needing a re-shingling of your entire roof.

Other factors to consider

Worn out shingles are common. Depending on their condition, a roof replacement may or may not be needed. Once way to tell if you need a replacement is if other areas of your roof have issues.

Check your roof from the inside to see if there is damage to the roof structure. If you notice your roof sagging or the presence of water, you’ll need a replacement.

Shingle Damage

The frigid temperatures can cause your shingles to harden, crack, and even break off. If ice or other flying objects hit your shingles on a cold day, there is a good chance they could be damaged, especially during a winter storm.

Leaks Causing Damage to Your 1st & 2nd Floor

Winter storms bring freezing rain, ice, snow, and moisture, all of which end up on your roof. If your roof is older, broken down, or has vulnerable spots, this water can get into your home and filter down to the second and even main level of your home. This can lead to a variety of issues including mold, structural issues, and more.

Weight Pressure from Snow Build Up

Snow and ice are heavy. Just think about how heavy snow can be when you’re shovelling your driveway. Now take all that snow and then some and add it to your roof. That is a lot of extra weight your roof has to hold. The pressure from snow build up could cause issues with your roofing structure.

Ice Dam

Ice can form on the edge of your roof and prevent melting snow from properly draining off your roof. When this happens, the water can leak into your home through improperly sealed sections of your roof. Ice dams can also lead to heat loss and add additional weight pressure to your roof. If possible, remove snow and ice from your roof to prevent ice dams from development.

We’re bound to experience a few winter storms each year. Some are big, some are small. But they can all pose a risk to your roof. Take preventative action by having your roof inspected regularly. Always check your roof after a big storm to ensure there is no damage or potential issues.

Here we outline some of the pros and the cons of installing solar panels on your roof.

The Pros Of Installing Solar Panels on Your Roof

There are a number of advantages to installing solar panels on your roof. They include:

• Reduce energy bill: This is the big one. Since solar panels will generate energy for your home, it will drastically reduce your energy bills. Depending on how many panels you install, you may be able to generate enough energy to take your home off the grid and actually generate a surplus of energy you can sell back to the grid.
• Increase home value: Installing solar panels will immediately increase the overall value of your home. If you plan to sell your home, you will be able to list it at a higher rate and recover some of your initial investment.
• Low maintenance: Contrary to what many people assume, solar panels do not require a lot of maintenance. You will need to clean them a few times per year or you can hire a company to clean and maintain them for you.

The Cons of Installing Solar Panels on Your Roof

There are a number of disadvantages to installing solar panels on your roof. They include:

• Initial cost: The initial cost of investing in solar panels and installing them on your roof can be steep. Some of these upfront costs may be covered under government energy programs. It can also take some time to recover your initial investment.
• Space: Solar panels can take up a lot of space. Not all roofs are ideal for housing solar panels and some modifications may be required. If your roof is too small, you may need to add solar panels in your backyard as well.
• Potential roofing issues: Any time you add something to your roof or make modifications, you could create potential issues. Solar panels could add extra weight and place more pressure on your roof. Attaching solar panels create potentially new areas for water to get into your roofing structure.

If you are thinking about installing solar panels on your roof and would like to discuss your options, please give us a call to book a free consultation. We’d be happy to assess your homes fit for solar panels.
