Roof Maintenance Warning Signs

You may have received a letter from us because we have visually inspected your neighborhood and have detected a problem with your roof.  Following are some common signs which are strong indicators that roof replacement is necessary:

• Damage or deterioration around the flashing at chimneys, vents and other junctions.
• Missing, curling, cupping, broken or cracked shingles.
• Damage or deterioration in valley areas of the roof.
• Excessive granular loss found in gutters and downspouts. Manufacturers cover asphalt composition shingles with granules to block ultraviolet rays from the sun. But natural aging will cause granules to erode and expose the asphalt. Granular loss begins during installation and occurs daily. This is an expected condition, but excessive loss may indicate a problem.
• Leaves, debris and dirt near roof edges or outside the gutters may impair drainage and lead to deterioration.
• Pooling or ponds of water that fail to drain from flat roofs may indicate low areas and inadequate drainage.

Remember, a roof is a home's first line of defense against the elements of weather.  Call today for a free estimate:  Toll Free: 866.766.3623  or Local: 972.381.ROOF
