Greeley Roof Repair

Your home is one of your most valuable investments. Your roof protects your home; therefore, your roof is probably THE most important part of your home. Don’t wait until it starts leaking before you go searching for a Greeley Roof Repair Company. We’ve got some tips to help you keep up your roof maintenance.

  1. Call a pro for this: If you’ve noticed your energy bill is going up every month, perhaps your roof has penetrations, which are causing your heat (or in the summer, your cool air) to literally go through your roof. If you have any penetrations in your roof, you’re probably getting moisture in your attic after rain or snow storms, which can lead to mold. If you are noticing these problems, these are the kind of problems that would be challenging for you to solve yourself. These types of roof problems are best handled by a professional Greeley Roof Repair Company (like us).
  2. Self-Maintenance: There are some things you can do on your own to maintain your roof. Cleaning your gutters keeps debris from building up or backing up onto your roof. Once a year, you should clear cobwebs and leaves from around the ventilation pipes on your roof. Seal them to prevent moisture from getting in. Another easy way to maintain the integrity of your roof is to re-caulk any exposed nails that can be found on all of your roofs vents, and pipe jacks.
  3. Choosing the right shingles: When it comes time to get your roof repaired or replaced, choosing the right shingle is critical to your investment. Most insurance companies will give the policy holder (you) a discount for upgrading your shingles to a class 4 (hail resistant) shingle. Sometimes as much as a 30 percent discount on your premiums! Not only will you be getting a discount on your policy but you will have a much better and long-term shingle protecting your investment. Be sure to talk with your agent about the benefits you might receive before making your next step in replacing with a class 4 shingle.
  4. Choosing the right color: Realtor magazine says that the top 10 things that homeowners consider when choosing the purchase of a new home is the color of the roof. That’s called “curb appeal.” Keep that in mind when you choose your roof color. Even though you might not be planning on selling your home soon, a good roof, when installed by professional Greeley Roof Repair Companies such as ours, Summit Roofing Solutions, LLC, can make or break a future sale 10 years from now.
