Broken, missing, or bent shingles
If you have asphalt shingle roofing, be on the lookout for curling or buckling shingles. This is a sign they are no longer solidly attached. It is possible to have missing or broken shingles due to heavy rains or strong winds. Wichita is no stranger to strong storms and the roof damage caused by them. Regular inspections, especially after a nasty storm, can help minimize future costly repairs.
Safer and Healthier Environment
An older roof can present problems with gaps in the material, causing moisture to seep through to the underlayment and insulation. When this occurs, there is little chance of fully drying out creating an excellent environment for mold and mildew growth. Many have allergies to mold and mildew, and health problems can exacerbate with damp insulation. As a new roof is installed, the old material is destroyed and replaced with fresh, therefore the family can enjoy a healthier life in the home.
Secondly, some critters are great at finding those little holes in roofing materials and creating homes in them. As the critter families grow, the critter home must also. The holes are enlarged and the damage has begun. A regular inspection by a trusted roofing company can help find these critter homes and put an end to the destruction. In fact, a new roof will easily remove the critters and help them relocate.
Energy Efficiency
Installing a new roof can seal up any open gaps that were present with the old roof. Additionally, new insulation can be installed which will help with the temperature barrier between the interior of the home and the outdoors. When the proper amount of insulation is in a home, the cold temperatures of winter do not enter the home, and likewise, the summer heat is blocked. This will allow the heating and cooling system to run more effectively and the monthly bills will be diminished. Saving money on the monthly energy bill is an added bonus!
