Reasons why your shingle roof needs protection

Curling and MissingTaking your time to think about what your asphalt shingle roof needs pays off in the future. However, it’s better to do it now before winter starts.

Assessing small repairs ASAP

The first thing you must do is to assess your roof’s current weaknesses. You may see some curling edges or some buckling in the middle of the shingles – or even a couple missing. The key is to assess whether these signs are isolated or not. Some things require small repairs; others a larger investment.

For example, when your shingle roof has given all it had, you’ll see large amounts of asphalt granules left on the eavestroughs. Moreover, widespread buckling, curling, or missing shingles are obvious signs that you need to reshingle.

It’s gonna be really cold outside

Asphalt granulesSo, why should you start now? The simplest answer is that your roofers are humans, too. If you’ve felt chill by walking outside during winter, imagine being on top of a roof for hours. Of course, they can do the job, but their fingers can freeze, too. You don’t want to risk getting a rushed job.

In addition, besides being physically demanding, there’s the safety problem. Remember; roofers must go over the roof deck. Thus, even small amounts of precipitation can make the surface slippery and dangerous. Safety hazards and difficulty mean higher labor costs!

Despite all this, the good news is that you’re still on time. Don’t hesitate and call our experts at JS Roofing to evaluate and fix your shingle roof properly!
