Arlington Roof Repair Contractors Educate On Summer Storm Roof Protection

Chantilly, Virginia (findit) May 22, 2019 - The Arlington roof repair contractors at Beyond Exteriors released a blog educating readers on various methods of roof protection for upcoming summer storms. Although the snow and hail may be long over, summer storms bring unique challenges for homeowners.

Regular roof inspections can help you maintain the integrity of your roof. You should schedule inspections after intense weather events, such as blizzards or strong summer storms, to ensure that there are no missing shingles, soft spots, or other signs of serious damage. Failing to do so could result in deeper damage, necessitating a complete and costly roof replacement. Even minor roof damage can cause leaks, which in turn lead to mold growth, damaged interior walls, and health problems for residents. Identifying and fixing your roof's defects as quickly as possible can save you money and the stress of cleaning up worse damage later.

Inspections are just one step in protecting your roof from summer storms. After a professional roofing contractor has deemed your roof safe, continue to maintain it by keeping gutters clean to allow for proper water drainage and runoff. In addition to putting unnecessary strain on your roof, clogged gutters can direct water towards the foundation of your home and cause significant damage there. Trim nearby trees to prevent large branches and other debris from falling on and damaging the roof during high winds, and make any repairs necessary throughout the season. If you notice anything out of the ordinary with your roof, including leaks or missing tiles, contact a specialist for another inspection. By following these steps, homeowners can protect their roof and prevent easily avoidable damage to their property during the summer.
