Readying Your Roof For This Fall Season

fall leavesThere’s nothing quite like fall in Ohio. The leaves put on a show, the air begins to cool, and we take comfort in our homes with friends and family. To help your home protect you all season long, we have compiled a few tips on prepping your roof for fall.

  1.  Trim the trees away from your roof line and gutters. Trees typically grow at a steady rate all year round despite weather conditions, so trimming back the branches will prevent excess leaves on your roof when the leaves begin to fall.
  2. Replace missing and damaged shingles. Summer’s storms and heat can take a toll on shingles, so it is important to update your shingles before the frost and snow of fall take hold.
  3. Clean your gutters to avoid damage to your home. Clogged gutters can house insects and other vermin, or cause water to pool near your foundation and create foundation problems.
  4. Have a professional roof inspection. Damage to a roof is often undetectable to the untrained eye. A professional roofer will be able to discover any potential problems to keep your roof sturdy.
