Dust, tree branches, dried leaves and other debris can contribute to organic growth in your roof. Don’t wait before greens start growing on your flat roof before your clean it. Regularly sweeping your leaves and dust off your roof will not only prevent this issue but also make your home look better.
Regular roof inspections can help detect problems before they turn into costly repairs. Roof check-ups must also be done after extreme weather events. Avoid delaying repairs because the problem will only get worse. Make sure to hire an experienced contractor for inspections and repairs. You can go online and search, “roofer near me” and you’ll be presented with a list of roofing contractors in your area. Before hiring a contractor, do your research, look for customer feedback and request for proof of license and insurance.
Standing water is the worst enemy of flat roofing systems. When not addressed, it can compromise the surface of the roof, leading to damage and leaks. One way to minimize standing water in your roof is to have your gutters regularly inspected and cleaned. You want to prevent clogging in your gutters as much as possible because water will back up to the roof and overflow to your home’s exterior.
