It’s October and there are plenty of scary creatures lurking around, but don’t let your roof be part of your Halloween decorations. Failing to schedule routine inspections of your roof can lead to some chilling discoveries. Here are a few of the scary things we find during routine maintenance of roofs.
Insects
Insulation that has gotten wet attracts bugs and insects to gather on your roof. This can lead to roof leaks.
Mold
Mold and bacteria also grow in and on wet insulation. This can lead to an entire host of problems in your home or building.
Debris
Leaves, branches, trash and other foreign objects can cause trip and fall hazards. If these things collect on your roof it can lead to shingle damage. They also will clog your gutters, not allowing the gutters to drain properly.
Water Leaks
Pooling water on your roof can create a compromised membrane and result in a leaking roof.
