We have 4 tips for keeping your roof in top shape for this upcoming summer. 

Clean Out the Gutters

Your gutters are a hot attraction. Many things like to get stuck there, such as twigs, leaves, dirt, and other types of debris. Even though you might not see the garbage, it is negatively affecting your roof. Gutters drain water from your roof. But if they are clogged, the water gets stuck and gets pushed back onto your roof. This can cause leaks. In the worst-case scenarios, the weight of the water that gets pushed back can damage your shingles too.

There are many summer storms, so you want to be keeping your roof in top shape for these weather conditions. Your gutters need to be clear, so the water can smoothly go down your roof.

Inspect Ventilation

Ventilation is extremely important during the hot summer months. CK Roofing can inspect your attic and ensure that the ventilation is working properly. It plays a big role in your comfort and the stability of your roof. You may notice a problem with your ventilation if your energy bills are higher than the other past summers. You might be experiencing a lack of insulation. We will examine the components and make sure they are all working properly.

Update Your Roof

Roofs are built to last anywhere from 15 years to up to a lifetime. However, that’s if they are properly maintained. Whether their lifespan is up or they have experienced some damage, we have your back. Our experts can update your roof before summer rolls around so we can keep your roof in top shape. We can replace shingles, fix a leak, replace plywood, and the list goes on. 

Review Your Skylight

During the hail season, your skylight can suffer some damage. Get it inspected to ensure that there are no cracks or other ways for leaks to occur. This includes damaged or misplaced flashing.
