Roof Repair

A roof is an essential part of any home, but it can be easy to overlook the need for roof repair until it’s too late. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to the health of your roof so that you can stay ahead. Here are five signs you may need roof repair. 

​

Missing Shingles or Tiles 

 

If you notice missing shingles or tiles on your roof, then it could be a sign that you need roof repair. In some cases, this might be just due to age and weather wear-and-tear, but in other cases, something more serious could be going on like damage from a storm. Either way, it’s important to get the problem fixed as soon as possible so that further issues don't arise down the line. 

​

Leaks or Water Damage

 

Another common sign of needing roof repair is if there is water damage or leaks in your home. This usually indicates that there is an issue with your roofing system that needs to be addressed quickly before any further damage occurs. Keep an eye out for water stains on ceilings and walls, which can indicate a leak in your roofing system. 

​

Damaged Flashing

 

Flashing is used around chimneys and vents on rooftops to seal off these areas and prevent leaks from occurring. If flashing becomes damaged or has come loose, then this could cause leaking problems in these areas as well as structural damage if left unchecked for too long. It's best practice to have someone inspect the flashing regularly to make sure everything is sealed properly and nothing needs repairs or replacing. 

​

 Sagging Rooflines 

 

If you notice that your rooftop has started sagging in certain places, then this could be a sign of serious structural damage and should not be ignored. In most cases, this sagging will require professional help in order to assess the cause of the issue and provide a solution such as reinforcement beams or additional support structures for the rooftop itself.

​

Algae Growth 

​

Algae growth on rooftops is rarely a good thing and usually means that there is an underlying issue with either drainage or ventilation issues causing them to occur more frequently than they should be able to grow naturally. This can also lead to other problems such as moss growth which can then cause further deterioration over time if not addressed properly by a professional contractor who specializes in roofs.
