Why Roofing Inspections Are Necessary
The roof is an essential part of the home, as it provides protection from the elements year after year. Like any part of a structure, though, it needs proper care to keep it functioning at its best. Part of its upkeep should involve regular inspections by a qualified roofing contractor. Other reasons why a roof inspection may be beneficial include checking the roof’s condition as the warranty’s expiration date approaches or immediately after severe weather has moved through your area.
Weather Damage
After heavy rains, snowfall, or a hail storm, it’s wise to have your roof checked right away for possible damage. The impact of harsh weather conditions could allow water and debris to damage roofing components like shingles, flashing, and gutters, compromising the entire roofing system. By catching these potential serious roofing issues early, you can easily prevent costlier, more extensive damage that could occur later date. This is the case for both the outside and inside of your home or business.
Leak Assessment
A roof can have a leak even without showing any signs of one. It is for this very reason that we perform water tests to discover the source of a water leak. A water test is used to literally test the roof with controlled water sources in order to find the location of the leak source. A water test is the easiest way that we can discover leaks in the following areas:
- The roof itself
- HVAC units
- Walls
- Penetrations
Water damage that might not be visible on the rooftop or in the ceiling may affect underlayment components like:
- Rafters
- Ridge boards,
- Collar beams
You might only notice the leak when brownish water stains show up on the ceiling and exterior walls. However, you can avert these issues by getting a timely inspection from a reliable roofing contractor, such as Adonai Roofing.
Warranty Protection
Most roofing product manufacturers require regular inspections to keep the warranty of the roof valid. Depending on the product and maker, the warranty may require an annual or a biannual roof inspection done by a qualified professional. Not complying with this requirement may void the warranty and result in costly repairs if something goes wrong with your roof.
