3 Ways to Increase the Lifespan of Your Roof

A new roof is not typically something that homeowners want to spend their hard-earned money on, but sometimes it becomes necessary. After all, a durable roof is essential to structural stability and protecting your home from the elements outside. Like any other key component of your home, the roof requires proper care and maintenance to get the most out of it. Basic Roofing can manage all of your roofing needs, and we’ll go over three ways that you can extend the lifespan of your roof with our help.

Roof Repairs and Maintenance

1. Address Repairs Promptly 

If you notice any issues with your roof that may require repair, you will want to address those as soon as possible. Otherwise, a minor issue may escalate into a much larger problem. For example, if there are any missing or cracked shingles, it would be wise to let a professional assess the condition of your roof to determine which roof repair solution would be in your best interest.

2. Inspect Your Roof Regularly 

You should always keep a close eye on the condition of your roof, especially after storms. It would be wise to schedule inspections at least once or twice each year to check for any signs of damage that you may have missed. Our professional inspectors will completely investigate your roofing system for any potential issues and report them all to you. 

3. Maintain Your Gutters

Another crucial way to prolong the lifespan of your roof is to properly maintain your gutters with cleanings and inspections. You should clean your gutters twice annually in the spring and the fall and ensure that water is draining as it should be. Failing to clean out your gutters could create clogs that cause water to pool along your roof, resulting in leaks. You can trust our experts for gutter repairs and replacements and seamless gutter installations.
