Extreme weather can take its toll on a roofing system here in Wasaga Beach, where temperatures can plummet quickly and excessive moisture can seep into homes through cracks in weak roofing structures. If you want to protect your home and the contents therein, then repair to your asphalt shingles may be your best bet.
Roof repair or replacement should not wait until it begins to rain indoors. If you are unsure of your roof’s integrity, check it yourself before more extensive and costly damage occurs. Start by arming yourself with a flashlight and heading to your home’s attic.
Look for signs of leaks such as sagging roof lines, mold or mildew infestations or light peaking through from outdoors. Next, scan the exterior of your roof for signs of damage. Pay close attention to seams around chimneys or vents and note any excessive corrosion of roof shingles such as lost sand, curling shingles or damaged flashings.
Depending on the specifics of your roof repair needs, you may require only a few new shingles or a whole new roofing surface. If there are only a few minor repairs to be made, new asphalt shingles can be applied directly over the damaged area. If multiple layers of roofing material already exist, however, removal of these old layers may be required. If you are in a highly windy area, nothing beats the lasting quality of a metal roofing installations.
If complete roofing services are required, it is important to find a contractor who will take into consideration all aspects of your roof replacement including certified safety practices, the use of high-quality roofing materials and attention to details surrounding chimneys and vents on your roof.
