It should not have to be a tree coming down on your home that makes you realize you need a roof repair service. Even minor roofing defects can lead to long-term and costly problems should you ignore them long enough. Most well maintained roofing systems can last two decades or more before a new roof installation is called for.

Below are the Top 3 indications that you simply should not ignore which are signs you need to bring in a professional to have a look at your roof.

1) If you’re finding signs that the shingles are coming off or loosening it may indicate more damage up above than you’re seeing from below. The shingles of the roof really are a top layer of protection between you and the elements. You need every layer for sufficient protection.

2) It’s wise to be concerned if you’re finding roofing nails or other roofing materials on your lawn. It takes only a tiny entry point for water to get involved with your roofing system and cause damage that goes undetected before the damage is extensive. Water damage and mold that starts together within your roof may even create sub flooring damage or damage the dry wall because of the way in which water can wick and travel.

3) Another indicator of needing roof repair in your foreseeable future is finding seeping water within your house during a rain storm. When you see your roof is leaking water from the inside that means water has entered several layers of roofing such as the shingles, tar paper and other wood structures. Along with what water leak there is residual moisture left inside your attic-crawl space thus potentially leading to more issues with water damage and mold. Quite simply it’s time to explore that roof repair service you might have been postponing.

You may be able to obtain an affordable roof repair solution rather than a far more involved new roof installation as long as the roof is structurally sound to begin with. No legitimate roofer will place a new roof on the top of the old roof since it produces an inadequate roofing system and more problems like the ones you are going through.
