Boston Roofing Tip of the Month: Simple Maintenance Tips to Prolong the Life of the Roof

Installing the new roof can be a costly proposition. According to the latest market price, the cost can easily swell to more than $36,000. Since this is an expensive investment, it is only natural that you want to keep it at its pristine condition. Even old roof can prolong its life if you conduct the proper maintenance regularly. This can help you stay away from the cost related with the premature replacement of the roof.



Tips that Will Extend the Life of Your Roof

To maintain the shape and condition of anything such as your car or even your health, it will require a proper and regular maintenance. This is also necessary to keep your roof in its good state. This will help you save money, time, and effort.

Cleaning Your Gutter

While most people will ignore the condition of their gutter, understand that it plays an important role in keeping your property safe from water damages. Therefore, it needs to remain functional. Basement flooding, stains, foundation damage, damp surface, leaks, and ruined paints are some of the common issues related with a clogged gutter. To avoid this, you will need to clean it at least twice per year. Replacing the gutter can cost you thousands of dollars but it can be avoided by removing the trapped debris.

Disposing the Leaves

If there are branches of tree that overhangs in your roof, there is a chance that your roof will usually be littered with leaves. It is possible that the piles of leaves will accumulate near the chimney or valleys. If you choose to ignore the problem, the leaves will encourage the buildup of moisture that can corrode your roofing materials. It can also develop a fertile place for the weeds and moss to develop. If the leaves are dry, getting rid of them may be simple. You just need to be wary on the weight of the trash since you will have to carry them down the ladder. If it is wet, a garden hose may be necessary to flush them. Be sure that there are no damages on your roof before using garden hose.

Moss Removal

Removing the moss is another ideal way to prolong the life of our roof. If your roof is not receiving enough sunlight, it is highly likely that it will be covered with moss. It will make your property appear unsightly. Some buyers of property will consider moss growth as a red flag. Using chlorine bleach can be effective in getting rid of them but you need to be wary on the materials of your roof since it can cause discoloration. After removing the moss, consider applying zinc strip on your roof since it will prevent the growth of mold in the future.

Finally, you will need to be alert on the signs of damages. If you are hearing strange noises at night, this can be a sign of wildlife invasion and they can cause severe damage on your roof. You should also look for damaged or displaced shingles and anything that may appear amiss.
