Chances are likely that your roof has already received a battering from the weather this year. Fall is a great time to have a professional Santa Rosa roofer evaluate the state of your roof and make any required repairs to get it ready for the rainy season. Santa Rosa has substantial seasonal variance in monthly precipitation. and February is the wettest month with an average rainfall of 5.7 inches.
As we enter the wetter months of the year, here are a few suggestions to assist you to preserve the safety and stability of your house.
Gutter Maintenance
The purpose of gutters is to deflect rainfall away from a home. When rain gutters are blocked with leaves, mud, or other debris, rain can pool and overflow. Heavy gutters may separate from the roof, causing a pool of water to form immediately next to the house’s foundation.
If you have a basement, water may enter readily through windows and cause flooding. If your gutters pull away from your home, they may cause holes in the roof, which can lead to leaks.
Roofing Upkeep
Examine the roof on a sunny day when the shingles are dry to determine whether any are missing, damaged, or buckling. Green or black streaks indicate the presence of mold or algae. Damage to the roof and its age may demand either repair or replacement. Your Santa Rosa roofer can assist you in making that important decision.
Ceiling Preservation
Mold growth in your home can be produced by water in the ceiling and walls, which can result in health problems for your family. Any gutter, roof, or ceiling issues should be resolved prior to the upcoming rainy season.
