How to Extend the Life of Your Home’s Roof
4 Simple Steps for a Longer Roof Life
- Schedule annual roof inspections. Catch small leaks or flashing issues before they cause damage.
- Keep gutters clear. Clogged gutters cause water to back up under shingles.
- Trim overhanging trees. Branches can scrape shingles or drop debris that traps moisture.
- Address storm damage quickly. Even a few missing shingles can lead to major issues if left unrepaired.
Upright Construction offers free roof inspections and can help you determine whether repair or replacement makes the most sense for your home.
5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Roof
- Curling or cracked shingles
- Granule loss in gutters
- Interior leaks or water stains
- Sagging roof deck
- Storm or hail damage
If you notice these, it’s time to call a trusted Evansville roofing contractor to evaluate the condition before it worsens.
