Hello there my friend,
Lean in close and let me share a little trade secret with you: it literally pays to properly maintain your roofing system cause ya' got a lot of money invested in your roof system.You know how they say an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure? Well I am here to tell you, that cure can be worth thousands of dollars when it comes to problems with your roof due to neglect.
Here’s the deal. You don’t have to be a roofing professional to effectively manage the basics of your roof. Just take a look-see up there — if you spy any debris, clogged drains or cause for concern such as an overhanging tree limb, plan time for removal. Yessiree, it’s that simple. It also pays to minimize the foot traffic on your roof.
But be mindful, that’s not where a solid proactive maintenance plan ends. Partnering with a trained eye for thorough, regular roof surveys can uncover the deficiencies that ultimately lead to costly repairs. A professional maintenance survey will include a good look at membrane seams and flashings, roof hatches, ladder and locking mechanisms, HVAC unit access doors and covers, plus more. Semi-annual roof surveys are also essential to staying compliant with the terms of most all Roofing Manufacturer's warranty requirements.
