Like your car, your roof needs annual maintenance to ensure everything is functioning as it should, and any issues or damages are addressed. For many, it’s very easy to move this task down to the bottom of your “to-do” list – but regular maintenance is extremely important for your roof and your home! We’ve put together 5 reasons why you should have your roof inspected once a year.
Lifespan
Preventative maintenance can drastically increase your roof’s lifespan. Depending on the type of roof you have, and with the right maintenance, your roof could last anywhere from 15-30 years. Your roof is one of the most important parts of your house, protecting you and your family from the elements – and regular maintenance can help keep it long-lasting, and resilient.
Prevents Damage
Hiring Assurance Roofing to perform annual inspections allows a professional to examine your roof for any cracks, leaks, or damage that may have occurred. Damage caught early enough is much easier and cheaper to fix. If left untreated, cracks or leaks could lead to water damage, structural damage, or even mold, leaving you with a costly repair or even replacement.
Energy Efficiency
During an annual roof inspection, Assurance Roofing can seal gaps where air may be leaking, repair any damaged shingles, or locate and fix poor insulation. Once these problems are fixed, your HVAC system will run much more efficiently, regulating your home’s temperature by preventing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer.
Save Money
Having your roof inspected once a year will save you money in the long run for multiple reasons. The cost of a repair or maintenance visit is much less compared to the cost of a roof replacement. Significant damage can occur from a crack or leak, and preventative care could save you from future, more serious destruction.
Peace of Mind
When you hire Assurance Roofing to perform preventative maintenance on your roof, you can rest assured that your roof is in good shape. Unexpected leaks, damages, or emergency repairs become the thing of the past. Regular maintenance can give you peace of mind that your roof is in good condition, and that your home and your family are protected.
