| Spring Roof Inspection A Must for Property Owners |
The sun has begun to shine again, the birds are chirping – and property owners around the country are busily putting together their spring to-do lists. Chores like cleaning out the garage, refinishing the deck and landscaping will be on many home maintenance lists this season. What can often be overlooked is the roof over your head. Whether on a residential or commercial building, your roof has protected you and your belongings from wind, rain, snow and hail all winter long. It has been battered, blown and frozen.
Asphaltic roofing systems are designed to require low maintenance and afford easy repairs. However, property owners must still keep a roof system properly inspected and maintained. A roof system and its components should be examined in the spring and in the fall to make sure it is secure and functioning properly. |
