To extend the life of your roof, the golden rule is to be proactive. Don’t wait until problems appear. Instead, inspect your roof regularly and carry out routine maintenance to keep it in top condition, and it will protect your home and your possessions for decades.
- Choose a professional roofing contractor, preferably local, to install or repair your roof. A lifetime workmanship warranty and cast-iron manufacturer’s warranties will give you a head start in keeping your roof trouble-free for decades.
- Clean out the gutters regularly, removing leaves and any other debris that could cause water to pool.
- Cut back any overhanging tree branches. If these are large or hard to reach, call a professional to carry out the work in the interests of safety.
- Have the interior and exterior of your roof inspected annually. Best time to do this? Before the winter takes hold. This isn’t a luxury -in some cases, your roof warranty will specify an inspection schedule that you need to adhere to so it remains valid
- Clean your roof regularly, or have it professionally cleaned. Remove any moss that may have appeared.
- If you spot any issues, call the roofer who installed your roof without delay.
- Ensure your roof has adequate ventilation so air can circulate efficiently.
- Ensure you have adequate insulation in your attic.
