Tip 1:
Check the age of your roof.
. Most roofs last 20-30 years depending on the material
. If your roof is past that age, its smart to schedule a professional inspection ( which we offer ) - even if there are no visible leaks.
. Flat roofs typically last 20-25 years depending on maintenance and installation quality.
Tip 2:
Look for visible damage.
. Cracked, curled or missing shingles or tiles.
. Loose or damaged flashing around chimneys or vents.
. Bubbles or blisters on flat roofs, a sign of trapped moisture.
. Sagging areas that could mean water damage underneath.
Tip 3:
Check for leaks and water stains.
. Brown marks or damp patches on ceilings or walls often mean water is getting in.
. Even small leaks can spread fast, especially after heavy rain or snow.
. If you notice multiple leaks, it may be more cost-effective to replace the roof instead of repeatedly patching it.
Tip 4:
Inspect the gutters.
. Check for granules or pieces of material in your gutters - this could mean your tiles are breaking down.
. Rusty or sagging gutters can also be a sign of poor drainage caused by roof wear.
Tip 5:
Look inside your loft or attic.
. Go up during daylight, if you see sunlight coming through, water can get through too.
. Damp insulation, mold or musty smells are also warning signs of roof leaks.
Tip 6:
Consider rising energy bills.
. Poor roof insulation or hidden leaks can make it harder to heat your home efficiently.
. A new roof can greatly improve your energy efficiency, saving you money over time and adding value to your property.
