The Benefits of a Roof Inspection
Buying a home is one of the largest investments you will make. Home ownership means time and money as an investment to ensure your home is always in good condition all year. Through the years wear and tear is common for homes, especially after the winter we had in Nashville, TN from the snow, sleet, hail and rain. Spring is here and warmer temperatures are ahead. With spring here, our attention will go to those new gardens we will be planting or a new addition to the home, forgetting that our roofs helped keep that nasty winter away from what is precious to us. The team at Roofing by Design Inc. recommends that roofs in Nashville and Middle Tennessee receive a regular inspection so that you have reassurance of your roof system during the spring rains. They suggest a roof inspection so that instead of putting a Band-Aid on the potential problem, a solution takes care of it.
What we have noticed lately is unfortunate homeowners that have had the work of roofing company or subcontractors that work was done incorrectly or what in the industry we call “cut corners”. Below is a picture of a huge gap between the roof and the sheeting. When it rains, where do you think that water is going to go? Yep, right in the attic! A big problem with a big fix.
Locating Potential Roof Problems
Who likes a leaky roof anyway? They are tedious, time-consuming and stressful at times. A roof inspection is a way that Roofing by Design Inc. locates possible trouble areas on your roof before they become serious. One or two leaky spots may not seem to be a big problem but long term they bring results that not only affect your roof but your walls and ceiling. No one wants the site of those ugly water stains on our ceilings, so stop them become they become your new paint color.
What Our Roof Inspectors Look For
Our roof inspection team at Roofing by Design Inc. looks for issues such as loose or missing shingles, hail damage, or wind damage. Heavy rains cause havoc on gutters that aren’t cleaned from all the leaf foliage in the fall and winter. Therefore, the rain has nowhere to go but back on the roof and if you have leaks or damaged shingles, it’s a big problem waiting to happen. A yearly inspection from our inspectors helps begin the process of protecting your home and everything inside. If you are in Nashville, TN or in the surrounding Middle Tennessee area, have your roof checked before the spring rains come.
