Get Your Roof Ready for Winter

NORTH PENINSULA BUILDING
By Diana Johnson Executive Officer, North Peninsula Building Association

For many American families, homeownership brings a sense of stability, accomplishment and peace of mind. Owning a home also means being responsible for its upkeep, in order to make sure it is a safe, comfortable sanctuary for your family to enjoy. As the winter months approach, the first measure of protection for a home against rain and snow in many parts of the country is the roof. These tips offer a guide in which to get your roof ready for the cold winter: 1. Start off by checking the roof framing structure scan the roof for any sagging or uneven this may mean damage to the roof deck 2. Inspect the gutter systems to make leaves or other debris. This is snow have a way off of the roof. If roof, there is an increased likelihood of 3.

Flashing is the aluminum or metal material that is used in roof-to-wall transitions over joints to prevent water from seeping in and causing damage. Metal flashing should also be used around roof vents, pipes, skylights and chimneys. Remember that flashings can be loosened or torn by high winds and heavy rains, so inspect the areas annually. 6. Lastly, you should carefully inspect the shingles on the roof – look for curling edges, missing granules, and certainly for missing shingles or damage from birds, rodents, or squirrels. Have a certified roofing professional inspect your roof at least twice a year—before the winter months begin and after they are over—you’ll be able to spot and correct any potential problems before they could get severe and cause you to For more information about home safety, contact the North Peninsula Building Association 360-452-8160.
