Should You Have Your Roof Inspected?


While a properly installed roof may require little to no maintenance, it is still important to consider getting roof inspections every so often. Some important factors to consider are how often you should have a roof inspection and the reasons why you should have a roof inspection. Read on to learn more.

How Often Should I Have my Roof Inspected?

Keep up with regular annual roofing maintenance inspections at least once or twice each year for your home or apartment. Two inspections per year is ideal, as it will account for seasonal weather extremes.

Cold and warm extremes can impact roofing materials, and by conducting professional inspections through the calmer weather phases of the year, it allows you to assess damages and repair them before things accumulate and worsen later in the year.

After a Storm

No matter how effectively you inspect and maintain your roof, one bad storm can be enough to make all that go out the window. It’s frustrating, for sure, but it’s also not something that you don’t have any recourse to fix. As soon as it’s safe to, get professional service, and ensure that they address any and all damage right away.

Whatever you do, it’s vital that you do not let these issues go unfixed. Broken shingles and roofing can open up more vulnerabilities inside your home. Lingering leaks can promote the growth of mold, mildew, and a myriad of unpleasant health problems and water damage issues on your hands. Wood and drywall materials in particular are extremely porous when it comes to water absorption, so it’s especially crucial to address these issues immediately before they get really out of control.

Before a Storm

Just as it’s important to inspect your roofing after a storm, it’s also important to pre-emptively brace it for forecasted storms, especially tornadoes or other extreme wind events. If you have any loose materials on your roof, you’ll want to tighten them before the winds pick up. Loose nails and flashing could easily be pulled away in winds, which could pose a hazard..

When You Sell

Whenever you sell any highly valuable asset such as a home, you’re going to want to get the most you can. Damaged, unkempt homes aren’t going to sell at their highest potential price. If you have a disappointing property value, give it a reinvigorating boost by inspecting for structural flaws.
