​4 Top Tips In Spring to Get your Roof Ready

As soon as it starts to warm up in spring, it's the perfect time to assess your home's roof condition and see if there's anything you need to get scheduled and/or budget for.  Here's some information from a professional home roofing contractor to help you out.

Get a Professional Inspection
If you call a roofing professional and pay them for an inspection, it's well worth your investment.  There are many repairs that can't be assessed  simply by looking .  An inspection by a local roofing company can discover small issues that can be repaired.  Many times with roofing issues, small jobs left undone become major issues later causing holes in your roof and water leakage, among other things.

Clean Out Your Gutters
Cleaning all the debris and accumulation out of your gutters is one of the biggest things you can do yourself to keep water from being an issue at your house.  In the spring, we get many episodes of heavy rain, and if your gutters can't effectively deal with all that water, it has no choice but to accumulate close to your house, and possibly flood your basement or crawl space.

Check Your Crawlspace or Attic
If you are able to access your attic or crawlspace, it's a good idea to make the time to view these areas.  Go up in the attic and see if you notice any leaks or holes.  Doing this review each spring will keep small issues from becoming large ones and possibly causing you to need a complete roof replacement.  If you can get into your crawl space, check to see if there's any water accumulation.  And as always, review your basement for any signs of water leaking through the foundation.

Review Impact of Trees or Branches
Look around your yard for any trees that are close to your house, or branches overhanging it.  If branches are constantly swaying against your roof or gutter, they can eventually damage them.  They can also provide easy access to squirrels and other rodents who will deposit debris and other things in your gutters.  Leaves constantly falling from branches will clog your gutters and make extra work.  If you don't feel comfortable trimming trees or branches yourself, there are plenty of professional companies who can do it for you.
​
These are just a few of the simple things you can do to keep your roof and home in decent shape by making spring the time to do an annual review.  Add these task to your spring cleaning schedule and you'll be in good shape year round.
