Spring Cleaning – Roofing

It’s officially spring, and it’s time to start cleaning! Winter weather can wreak havoc on a roof and with all of the spring showers – leaks can appear out of nowhere. If you’re ready to add roof maintenance to your spring cleaning to-do list, here are some tips!

Trim trees and remove fallen limbs

Heavy snow and spring storms can displace or bend tree limbs so that they make contact with your roof. Prevent damage by removing any fallen limbs and trimming any branches that look like they could make contact with your roof.

Clean up leaves or needles

Leaves and pine needles that collect on your roof are prime habitats for mildew and rot. They also clog your gutters and add extra weight to your roof. You don’t want them to pile up and damage your roof, so be sure to clear them off before another season passes.

Repair your shingles

If any of your shingles have started to wear out, break or peel, now is the time to patch or replace them. Our qualified roofing technicians are happy to check your roof and perform any necessary repairs.

Clear your gutters

Gutters are critical for removing moisture and water from the roof. If they become clogged or damaged, you will decrease the life of your roof. Cleaning the gutters will keep water moving freely.

Check your ceilings and the attic

If you notice any sign of water damage, contact us immediately. We will assess the problem and will fix it in no time. And don’t forget the sniff test. If you smell mold or mildew, but can’t see it – don’t ignore it. Call us immediately to find the source.

Spring is the perfect time to perform routine roofing maintenance. It ensures that your belongings are properly protected and that your home looks its best during the coming months.

While its possible to work through this spring cleaning roofing to-do list on your own, its best to hire a roofing professional to conduct a yearly inspection. At Peak Performance Roofing, our experienced technicians are trained to spot problems that most people might miss. If you’d like to schedule an inspection, please call us at 636.225.6924 or email to info@peakperformanceroofing.com.
