How Do You Know When Your Roof Needs Repair?

Have you found yourself wondering if you need roof repairs?  Typically this isn't the type of question anyone asks themselves.  At least most people don't.  But what happens when your roof is legitimately in need of repair?  You depend on your roof every day and just assume it will always be there in perfect condition.  Unfortunately, like most things, roofs wear out too.  

Because your roof basically protects your whole house, it's important to keep it in tip-top shape.  During certain times of year, your roof is bound to get hot or moist.  The mixture of warm temperatures and moisture can wreak havoc on your roof over time.  This happens to many structures and your roof is no exception.  Fortunately you don't have to wait for disaster to strike; there are some key points you can check to determine if your roof is in need of repair and whether it's a job you can do yourself or need an expert from Roofing Companies Chicago to come and take a look.  

Evaluating Your Roof... From the Inside

Do you notice any sagging in your roof?  By going to the highest level in your home, you can see if this is the case or not.  Often this involves getting into the crawl space or attic and simply taking a look around.  If you do notice sagging, take action immediately!  Because where there's sagging, there is also the possibility of the roof caving in as well and nobody wants that!

While you're up in the attic or crawl space, shine your flashlight around and look for dark spots or trails.  These tell-tale signs indicate water seeping in through your ceiling.  Any type of water leak needs to be addressed immediately to prevent worse damage.  

Now turn your flashlight off.  Is there still ample daylight?  (Naturally, this check is best done on a bright sunny day).  Is any outside light shining in where it shouldn't?  If so, you may be seeing the effect of holes or cracks.  These need to be repaired because a hole or a crack can easily lead to worse issues like water leaks.  

In general, anytime you notice leaking or water damage you should get your roof assessed.  Signs of water damage may include areas of the ceiling peeling or discolorations.  Also, head up to the highest level on a rainy day and look around.  Pay close attention for any water dripping.  Look closely because many leaks start very small initially.  

Evaluating Your Roof... From the Outside

If you live in a humid area, things to watch out for include algae growth and mold.  Green-colored growth indicates algae whereas mold may be any shade from gray to black, but nonetheless pretty easy to spot.  

Verify that none of your titles or shingles are missing.  This is especially good to check after a windstorm.  Next look and see if any of them are torn or cracked.  Another indication that it may be time for a repair may be found in your rain gutters.  If chips of roof or sandy grit are collecting in your gutters or around vents or pipes, it may be time for a repair.
