Having your roof repaired is one of the last things you want to think about but it is necessary to preserve the structural integrity of your home. The worst thing you can do is delay needed repairs and damage. At Pacific Home & Patio, we are a leading Boise roofing contractor that would like to provide you with the following types of roof damage to look out for.
Roof Leaks
The roof of your home is designed to keep your home dry and comfortable. However, holes and torn sections allow water to enter your interior and damage certain areas of your home. Even worse, the insulation in your attic can easily become damaged due to water, which, in turn, can affect your home’s energy efficiency. This can drive up your heating and cooling costs since your HVAC system has to work twice as hard to warm or cool your home. That’s why it’s important to repair any roof leaks to avoid any of these problems.
Blistering
This Boise roofing problem is often caused by excessive heat and poor attic ventilation. Blistering often appears within the first year of asphalt shingle installation. Many homeowners used to consider this an aesthetic issue, however, it can cause premature deterioration of your homes roof.
Missing (or) Loose Shingles
Some people in the Treasure Valley replace their entire roof when there are missing or loose shingles. This ensures the aesthetic value of their home. A few missing or loose shingles can easily be fixed by a trusted roofing contractor like Pacific Home & Patio without any impact on your roof’s functionality.
Wind Damage
Wind damage to your roof can lift, loosen, and remove shingles. However, some wind damage may not even be visible. To maximize the performance of your roof, it’s important to have quality, wind-resistant roofing materials that are installed by a certified roofing contractor like Pacific Home & Patio.
Curling
The shingles of your roof can curl in two different ways. First, curling can happen when the edges of your shingles turn upward. Second, clawing can occur when the edges of your shingles stay flat while the middle area begins to rise.
Heat Damage
The areas of your roof that are constantly hot will need to be replaced more often. Prolonged exposure to constant heat can cause your shingles to fracture. This, in turn, causes your roof to lose its watertight component. When this happens, you will have to have your roof replaced.
