3 Signs You Need to Schedule a Roofing Service

Getting your roof serviced might slip your mind, as it only needs to be done occasionally. Preventative care, however, is always a good idea. You should have someone check on your roof regularly, so you are aware of any potential damage. According to The National Roofing Contractors Association, it’s recommended that you have your roof inspected twice a year. Regardless of this, you might only call in a technician when you notice a problem, so here are three things to look out for to help you know when you should have someone come and service your roof.

1. Leaks or Moisture Build-Up

You should have a roofing service send someone to look at your roof if you’ve noticed any leaks in your ceiling. A leak indicates that a crack or other kind of damage is letting water in. If you let leaks go unchecked, you will risk further damage to the interior of your home. Have a repair technician come and check on any leaks in your roof as soon as you notice them.

2. Damaged or Missing Tiles

If you can see any damages, or cracked and missing tiles on your roof, you should call a roofing service for help as soon as possible. Your roof might be okay without a few tiles for a time, however, ignoring broken or missing tiles could lead to leaks or damage to your home. Don’t ignore this problem if you notice it or things will only get worse. You don’t want to risk damaging the interior of your home because your roof is not adequately tiled.

3. Mold or Moss Growth

Excessive moss or mold growth should indicate that you need help from a roofing service. You cannot allow moss to grow in excess. This could lead to damage to your roofing tiles over time. If you don’t address moss or mold growth, you could need a full roof replacement sooner than you would have otherwise.

You should have your roof regularly serviced to ensure that no damage needs to be addressed. If you’re the kind of person to wait until there is an issue, there are a few things you can look for to help you know when to call someone. If you think you need a roofing service, call our local technicians at Fargo Roofing & Siding today.
