PROTECT YOUR ROOF WITH REGULAR PREVENTATIVE
MEASURES
2

• Having a new roof installed is a wonderful thing,
  it can set the look of a home or business, and
  help protect everyone and everything beneath it.
  But what happens if you dont take care of your
  new investment?
• A roof, just like any other element of your home
  or commercial premises, needs to be well taken
  care of in order to prevent it from
  malfunctioning and costing you a lot of money in
  repairs. In fact, wed go so far as to say that
  preventative measures for your roof are essential
  for its longevity, and without them, you could
  slash the lifespan of your roof by many, many
  years.

• Preventative measures include regular roof
  inspections by a qualified contractor, general
  inspections carried out by the homeowner at
  regular intervals and especially after a storm
  or extreme weather event and timely repairs of
  any issues such as leaks and missing slates.
• Protect your roof by having it regularly
  inspected
• While there are certain inspections you can carry
  out yourself from ground level (it generally
  isnt safe to climb a ladder and get up on your
  roof unless you know what youre doing, and what
  you should be looking for), twice yearly thorough
  roof inspections should be carried out by a
  professional roofing contractor, and will
  identify any existing issues with the roof, or
  any potential problems that could develop into
  something worse over time.

• Inspections of course dont come for free, but
  they can prove invaluable at saving you money in
  the long term, especially if you can spot and fix
  issues before they turn into major repair works.
• Get all problems fixed as quickly as possible
• There are few (if any) maintenance projects that
  can be delayed once theyve been identified, and
  if you notice a leak, see any tiles missing, or
  spot any flashing that has come loose, you should
  arrange to have the problem repaired as soon as
  possible. No roofing problem will fix itself, and
  typically, small problems may start little, but
  will inevitably grow to become bigger problems.

• Always use a professional roofing company
• You might be tempted by an offer of cut-price
  work from an out-of-town contractor who claims to
  be able to fix your roof at a tempting price, and
  in record time, but rarely is this a wise move. A
  local roofer who understands the area and the
  specific weather challenges faced there, for
  example, is always going to be the better person
  for the job, and while you might pay a little
  more for their service, youll be guaranteed a
  quality job from a roofer who isnt just in town
  to make a quick buck.

  for the course, and can help keep your roof in
  its best condition for many years to come. With
  regular inspections, quality repair jobs and a
  keen eye for any changes to your roofs
  performance, you can help your roof last as long
