As a homeowner you are probably aware of the vital role that your roof plays in protecting you and your family. Unfortunately, most homeowners neglect their roof until something goes wrong and they need an urgent repair. It is wrong to assume that a roof does not require any maintenance throughout its life.
If you neglect your roof and do not carry out regular maintenance on it then it is likely to only last half as long as a well maintained roof. A new roof can be very expensive so it really is in your interest to take care of it. When you need a roofing repair we can provide you with the very best service at Big Builders.
Here are the reasons why your roof is so important:
It Protects you and your Family
You roof keeps you and your family protected from the elements. Not only that but you probably have a lot of valuable things in your home right now, and if your roof develops a leak then when it rains some of your precious possessions can be easily ruined.
We recommend that you have a group of professionals, such as the highly experienced roofing team at Big Builders, inspect your roof to see whether there are any issues that could cause you problems in the short and long term.
There are many things that could be happening to your roof right now without you being aware of this:
- The structure of your roof can be a problem
- Some of the wood could be rotting away
- You may have large gaps between the slates
- There may be cracks in the wooden structure
- You may have algae or mold developing
After we have conducted a roof inspection we will tell you if you are in need of roofing repair. Our team of professional roofing experts can then perform the necessary roofing repairs for you at a reasonable price.
Your Home will be more Appealing
When you have your roof regularly maintained and cleaned it will add value to your home. Should you wish to sell your home then having a roof in top condition will bump up the sale price. Potential purchasers of your home will be very happy that your roof is in good shape as this is a major expense if there are serious problems.
Even if you have no plans to sell your home you can be proud of a clean and well maintained roof. Your home will stand out among those that do not take good care of their roofs. It will give you a lot of “curb appeal”.
You will Save Money over the Long Term
If your roof is strong and you have taken care of it then you are likely to spend a lot less money than a homeowner who has neglected their roof. When you take preventative steps to take care of your roof you are going to save a lot of money on really expensive roofing repairs.
The other way that you will save money is through paying less for your energy bills. If there is a problem with your roof then it could be causing a draft in your home and allowing heat to escape. If you use an air conditioner then this will have to work much harder when a roof is in poor shape.
