Many residential roofers have been asked over the years what’s the best way to care for a roof in Palm Harbor. We’ve found that many of these questions come from new homeowners. To help both first-time and experienced homeowners, we put together what are the key things to know about your roof. Keep reading and find out how this information can affect both you and your wallet.
What’s the Condition?
The first thing you should check with the roof is if there is any visible physical damage. You shouldn’t climb on top of your home, but you can contact some Palm Harbor residential roofers to make a thorough inspection for you. They’ll look for everything including:
- Damaged and worn shingles
- Holes or exposed gaps water can enter
- Damage to the gutters, soffits, and flashing
- Mold and algae growth
After your residential roofers finish their inspection, they will tell you what the problems are and possible solutions. Neglecting to make even minor repairs could end up creating thousands of dollars worth of other problems. A leak can lead to water damage for ceilings and walls inside the house, or even mold growth. Early prevention can save you and your wallet many headaches later on.
What Does Insurance Cover?
Knowing what your homeowner’s insurance covers is a very important thing that should never be overlooked. When making repairs, contact your insurance agent to find out what building materials are promoted underneath your policy. Using a material that is different than suggested may change your premium costs. The last thing anyone needs to is to be caught off guard when their next bill comes in the mail.
