Before the cold wind rolls in with winter, it is smart to take a look at your roof in order to
inspect it for a variety of things. By paying close attention to the condition of your roof you
can more easily and accurately determine when it needs to be addressed and if you can take
care of it yourself. If you decide that what you have inspected can not be handled by you or
anyone in the home, or you don’t even know where to begin inspecting the roof, it may be
smart to call in a trained professional. These professionals have the knowledge needed to not
only inspect your home for any problems but also give advice on the best path to take moving
forward. Part of this knowledge includes knowing exactly what to keep in eye out for as
there are numerous aspects of a home that need to be looked at when completing a roof
inspection regardless of whether it is conducted by a homeowner or a professional.

Ventilation:

Your roof’s lifespan can be maximized by ensuring that your home is properly ventilated,
allowing air to correctly flow in and out. This movement of are from the inside to the outside
and vice versa helps to prevent moisture from building up inside of your attic which leads to a
variety of other issues such as mold growth and mildew. If any problems are caused by poor
ventilation it is imperative that homeowners be sure to take care of not only the problem that
has developed but also the root of the problem: the ventilation. If the ventilation is not
properly addressed, the problem will continue to develop.

Damage:

One reason why having a professional take a look at your home is that they can properly
identify if something that looks suspicious is an alarming problem or just your average wear
and tear. If one gets on top of the roof and notices that shingles are either buckling, cracked,
or missing altogether it is important to fix the problem as soon as possible because heavy
snow or rain can lead to damage within the roof deck.
