Why Regular Roof Maintenance is Essential: Protect Your Home and Save Money
Many homeowners mistakenly believe that once they install a roof, it’s set for life. However, neglecting regular roof maintenance often leads to costly surprises down the road. In Florida, Roof Maintenance is especially vital. At Sentinel Roofing, we understand the value of proactive care, which is why we offer solutions to keep your roof in top condition and prevent expensive repairs.
The Importance of Regular Roof Maintenance
Regular roof maintenance can extend your roof’s life by up to 10 years and save you thousands in repairs. Just like a car needs regular oil changes and inspections by trained mechanics, your roof benefits greatly from being inspected and maintained before costly problems arise.
What Happens During a Roof Inspection?
During a roof inspection, our roofing professionals thoroughly assess your entire roofing system, starting with the asphalt shingles. As shingles age, they lose attached granules that serve both aesthetic and protective purposes. Without these granules, the underlying fiberglass matting becomes exposed, which can lead to leaks, increased brittleness, and color fading.
We also check for manufacturer defects, such as excessive granule loss or delaminating shingles. Detecting these issues early is crucial, as many warranty periods expire before problems become apparent. Additionally, we inspect all roof penetrations, including gooseneck vents, ridge vents, and pipe stacks, to identify material degradation and ensure your roof remains secure.
Common Roof Issues and Their Consequences
As your roof ages, it loses more granules, exposing the waterproofing matting underneath. This exposure can lead to leaks, increased brittleness of the shingles, and a loss of the roof’s original color. Manufacturer defects, such as excessive granule loss or delaminating shingles, can cause significant issues if not detected early. Squirrels often chew away at lead pipe boots, requiring repairs if left unchecked.
