Roof Maintenance: The Ultimate Spring Cleaning Checklist For Your Roof
Spring is right around the corner, which means spring cleaning is almost here! As you begin to make a list for all the to-do tasks, don’t forget to add “roof maintenance” to the list. Here is your ultimate spring cleaning checklist for your roof.
-
Clear Debris Off Your Roof
Over the fall and winter months, chances are your roof collected a lot of debris – such as leaves and twigs. Not only that, but if there’s a lot of debris, mold could be hiding out underneath it all. Giving your roof a good cleaning can not only improve the appearance of your roof, but it can also tell you where general wear and tear has occurred so you can address it. To avoid having the debris do damage to your roof, make sure to clear it all off this spring.
-
Clean Your Gutters
Rainwater should flow well through the gutters and the downspout system. If it doesn’t, and it backs up and overflows, then you probably have a clog or a blockage somewhere. This spring, clean your gutters. Clogs won’t disappear if you just ignore them. In fact, it could do a lot more damage if you don’t address it!
-
Inspect Your Shingles
Shingles are vital to protecting the integrity of your home. There are many things to be on the lookout for when it comes to your shingles, including:
- Buckling and Blistering Shingles
- Curling Shingles
- Stained Shingles
- Missing Shingles
If you notice any issues with your shingles, have a professional roofing contract our to take a look and give you options for repair or replacement.
-
Check For Mold
Mold can not only be harmful to your roof, but it can also be harmful to you and your family – especially if it gets inside. Keep an eye on signs of any mold on your roof, as catching the problem early on can prevent serious damage to you and your home. If you notice any mold, make sure to address it right away.
-
Schedule A Roofing Inspection
Last but certainly not least, a roofing inspection this spring is a great way to make sure your roof is in tip top shape! Sure, you can do a visual inspection and get a pretty good idea of the condition your roof is in. However, a professional roofing inspection will tell you any hidden roof damage you may not be able to see, as well as detect leaks and other issues faster.
