Is Your Roof Healthy?

‍

‍

The reality is, a home without a healthy roof is a maintenance disaster waiting to happen. Even minor roofing issues can be the genesis for a lot of far-reaching problems. Consistently maintaining a healthy roof not only gives you peace of mind but guarantees you the following four benefits:

‍

‍

Look After your Investment!

A well-protected investment - It is without argument that a home is one of the biggest investments that people make in their lifetime. A home is where people plan to live, raise their children and possibly spend the rest of their lives. Carrying out routine maintenance of your roof every now and then helps avert unforeseen roof disasters and prolong its life.

‍

Increase Property Value.

A higher property value - A good roof is a great selling point on a home, and maintaining the health of your roof ensures that it is always in its optimum condition. Many would-be buyers that take into account factors such as the quality of materials comprising the roof as well as their condition. They never fail to notice the beauty in materials such as the roof tiles or all those extras you have including energy efficiency features. Constantly taking care of your roof and keeping up with upgrades will only grow the value of your property.

‍

Protect Yourself

Security against hidden damages - Hidden damages on a roof can be costly. A small leak on your roof will not be as obvious as that major leak that threatens to soak everything in the house. However, the effects of that tiny leak that goes un-repaired for months or even years can be quite devastating in the end. It will have let in the water quietly all that time, causing rot and mold in places that will only be apparent once the damage has been done. Rotten beams in the attic will only be noticed when they snap, while a colony of mold and mildew will only be realized once serious health issues are diagnosed. All these can be avoided through the simple procedures of maintaining a healthy roof.

‍

Save On Living Costs.

Savings on heating and cooling costs - A healthy roof with good ventilation and functioning insulation is going to help you cut down on energy waste while heating or cooling your house. Ensuring that you have good insulation and taking active measures to maintain it is very important because it facilitates warmer winters as well as cooler summers for your interiors. A proper attic ventilation design, along with good insulation, will help your HVAC system run more efficiently.
