5 Winter Roof Care Tips <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

This winter season, be sure not to forget about your roof! Snowy weather can bring some extra wear and tear to your roofing system, so it’s important to keep an eye out and keep maintenance on your mind during the cold weather months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some tips for caring for your roof throughout winter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Get a Professional Roof Inspection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The best way to be certain your roof is in tip-top shape is to call your local roofing company for a thorough inspection! A roofer can evaluate the condition of your roof (whenever you need it throughout the year) to ensure everything is in proper working order. If there are any issues, they can recommend the necessary repairs and assist you in getting them done.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Trim Back Trees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Don’t be left with regret: trim your trees back whenever you can. Tree limbs and branches can fall off during any season, but winter weather can be particularly hazardous. Overhanging trees can fall onto your roof, causing all kinds of damage, so avoid this problem by having your trees trimmed back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Check The Flashing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Over time, your roof\u2019s shingles can become loose and warped, which can signal issues with your flashing. With improper flashing, snow and ice can move and enter your roofing system, causing leaks and damages. Make sure to get any issue fixed as soon as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Remove Snow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Snow sitting on a rooftop can be a recipe for disaster \u2013 especially if more snow is on its way. The heavyweight on the roof can lead to serious damage if it becomes too much. Sitting snow can also lead to ice dams, which are also very dangerous. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ice dams are created from melted snow that then refreezes and becomes ice. Those massive icicles hanging off your home may look pretty, but you don’t want to leave them there! Not only are they hazardous to you if they fall off, but they can damage your gutters and roof, leaving you with costly leaks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Keep an Eye on Your Attic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The condition of your attic is directly linked to your roof! Proper airflow in your attic ensures your roof stays protected. If your attic space is poorly ventilated or insulated, your roofing system may be exposed more to the harsh winter elements, allowing for issues like ice dams to grow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After inspecting your roofing system, go into your attic, check for sufficient insulation and ventilation, and get any needed work done soon.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
