Plano Roofing Spring Prep

Hooray! The colder temperatures are behind us. February saw both freezing temperatures and toasty afternoons, probably resulting in a house full of colds and frustration. Before it gets too warm, there are some general Plano roofing spring preparations you can get started on while the weather is in its sweet spot.

1. Quick Visual Inspection

Do a quick check around your home for any visual signs of damage or wear. Odds are you don’t look at your whole roof much so next time you head out, walk around and take a look. If your roof or gutters have spots where leaves are collecting, you can take care of them yourself! Look for places that may be collecting water and pay attention to any shingle discoloration. Knowing a little bit in advance will help your roofing crew focus on the right spots.

2.  Little DIYs

Since you’ve looked around your house, you know where there are small changes you can make. Any piled up leaves on your roof or in your gutters has to go! The buildup of debris makes great nests for small animals and insects. Be sure to remove any branches or trim trees that are in danger of falling on your roof.

 

3. Check Your Insurance Coverage

While you’re thinking about your roof, make sure you were thinking about it when you purchased your homeowner’s insurance, too. If your roof is getting older, check to see what insurance will cover for you, and what will be out of pocket. That way, should you need a major repair or a replacement, you’ll have the time to budget properly. Plus, your local insurance agent will know the right kind of coverage for your Plano roofing needs.

 

4. Check the Attic

You may be able to see spots in the attic that illustrate leaks or weak areas. Either these are invisible from the top of the roof, or your angle of observation may not be the best. Again, this is a great way to have as much information as possible before the pros come in.

 

5. Schedule an Inspection

The last step is to schedule a professional roof inspection by a local, reputable, Plano roofer. Roof Experts is here to help!
