Oh No! Do I Really Need a New Roof?
Many homeowners do not notice serious damage to their roof until it is too late. By the time you notice a stain on an interior wall or a puddle in your basement, serious damage may have already occurred. Don’t let these be the first sign that you detect!
Your roof can fail or simply wear out. After years of being exposed to the elements that make up our Chicago weather, such as wind, rain, snow, and ice, roof shingles can start to erode. Curling, peeling, and eventual disintegration of roof shingles can lead to permanent damage to your roof and, eventually, the overall structure of your home.
That is why you should contact a professional Chicago roofing contractor like Stan’s Roofing & Siding every 3 years for a thorough roof inspection. Here are some of the points we check when inspecting your roof.
- Leaks or spotting of interior ceilings
- Streaks along outside walls
- Shingles that are cracked or curled
- Missing shingles
- Granule loss on asphalt shingles
- Split wood shingles
- Excessive mold or moss growth
- Staining of rafters or in the attic
- Penetration of the shingle layer or roof deck
These checkpoints could be signs of serious structural damage to your home. If caught early, they could be fixed with simple repairs rather than a full roof replacement.
Don’t wait until it’s too late! Call Stan’s Roofing & Siding and our expert Chicago roofing contractors will consult with you on the condition of your Chicagoland home’s roof.
