Finally, it appears that Winter is losing it’s grip on us here in Georgia. Now is the best time to get your roof checked out and prepared for the hot, humid weather Georgia is famous for.
Spring in the South is notorious for harsh storms, make sure your roof is prepared! Here are 3 things you should do now, especially if it’s been a while since your last roof maintenance.
INSPECT
Inside and out, in the attic and up on the roof, inspecting or having someone inspect your roof fully and carefully will ensure that roof problems, no matter how small, are caught and repaired before it becomes a large issue. While most homeowners can do some inspections themselves, it is recommend to contact a professional (such as ARS) and have them get up on the roof itself. With ARS offering FREE roof inspections, there is no reason to take the risk yourself.
Most people are able to inspect the inside ceiling and interior wall areas for patches of discoloration, cracks, sagging, or other signs of leakage. Some even have easily accessible attic areas they can get into and check around for problems. If you notice any problems, contact a professional roofing contractor immediately before the problem gets out of control.
REPAIR
This sounds like a “no-brainer” but there are many homeowners out there that see an obvious problem and for one reason for another put off repairing it. Days, weeks, even months go by and the problem is forgotten about. In many cases, these seemingly “small” problems turn into major repairs or even roof replacement projects as problems such as leaks (especially leaks) almost always get much worse if left untreated.
Always, always, take care of problems as they are found.
