How Regular Roof Upkeep Can Prevent Early Roof Replacement

 

Three Simple Steps To Limit Roof Repair

Whether you own a house or a business, your roof is one of the biggest and most expensive elements of your property. With the right upkeep, your roof can last you decades, saving you a lot of money on a new roof installation that comes too early. Regular roof upkeep can also save you money on extensive roof repair, as well as prevent damage to your home, which will save you even more money on structural repairs.

Fortunately, there’s not much you have to do to protect your roof. Here are three things you can do to extend the life of your roof:

Get A Regular Roof Inspection

You don’t see your roof at all unless you make a special point to climb a ladder and get on top of your property for some reason – maybe because you’re cleaning your gutters, maybe because you’re hanging Christmas lights, or maybe because you’re inspecting the source of some strange noise. But even when you do get up there, you are unlikely to recognize the signs that there are any problems, unless you have a big hole in your roof or something else obvious.

You need to hire a roofing contractor to inspect your roof regularly to discover signs of any emergent problems before they cause major damage. Your roofer will know how to spot trouble spots and can make immediate repairs to prevent the spread of damage. You should get a roofing inspection at least once a year, but you may want to schedule it seasonally if you have had a lot of storms or live in an area with extreme climate. Phoenix residents should consider a roof inspection after the monsoon season or after the long, hot summer.

Make Roof Repairs Quickly

Once you know that your roof has some damage or is showing signs of deterioration, you need to make the roof repair as quickly as possible. You may get the report from your roofing contractor and put an appointment on the back burner while you tend to other issues or save some money. Or you may just not want to think about the problem or deal with it right away.

However, putting off the roof repair will only allow the damage to spread, costing you more money and hassle. The sooner you act, the easier the problem will be to resolve. You’ll also protect the rest of the roof from damage, which will help to prolong its life.

Add A Roof Coating

Phoenix, Arizona, summers are notoriously hot. The sun can be absolutely brutal, which will put a beating on your roof. UV rays can break down the roofing materials faster, shortening the life of your roof and costing you a lot in repairs along the way.
Adding a reflective coating to your roof can protect it from sun damage, and at the same time, it can make your roof more energy-efficient and save you on energy costs. The coating can also protect against rain and other elements, slowing the deterioration of roofing materials, preventing the formation of mold and mildew, and more.

Your roof is not a high-maintenance part of your home, though it does require special attention. If you don’t get regular inspections and don’t make roof repair as soon as you need it, damage can spread quickly, which can shorten the life of your roof. Taking these steps and adding a reflective coating can protect your roof from damage and extend its life, saving you a lot of money.
