Superior Roofing

When it comes to home maintenance, you can indeed put off certain things, but roof repairs are not one of them. Should you be tempted to delay repairs, the possibility of even more complications springing up becomes greater.

These are the four risks you expose yourself to whenever you delay roof repairs:

1. Attic and Ceiling Damage

   Putting off roof repairs causes problems not only to the roof itself, but to nearby components of your home as well. Each time you defer calling your roofer, you run the risk of further damage to your attic and ceiling. Common signs of problems include darkening of paint and the presence of bubbles in the plaster.

2. Pest Accumulation

   Roofing issues like leaks require immediate attention. Should you fail to address such problems, you run the risk of your roof turning into a veritable breeding ground for insects. While it’s a problem you can contain, addressing it can be a costly endeavor.

3. Mold and Mildew Growth

   Mold and mildew growth is a symptom of neglect. It’s a long-term effect of roof repair procrastination. The alarming bit about this problem is that it spreads rather quickly. More than that, it can be difficult of which to get rid. Common areas of concern are HVAC systems, furniture and even carpeting.

4. Accelerated Roof Aging

   Every roofing system has a life expectancy, but even the sturdiest of roofs won’t last long if you neglect them. Ignoring tell-tale signs of roofing issues and procrastinating with maintenance duties reduce a roof’s lifetime significantly. Address all roofing issues at once regardless of severity.
