From Shingles to Rubber

As summer is coming, you will need to prepare your roof for high temperatures and harsh UV rays. An experienced roofing contractor will be able to make the necessary modifications to your roof so that you'll have nothing to worry about throughout the summer.

Why Your Roof Might Be Vulnerable to Summer Weather

Throughout the winter, your roof might be damaged by severe weather. You will want to address this by hiring a roof rejuvenation service. You will not want to wait until the temperatures rise, because then your roof will become even more damaged.

Roof Inspections

Have your entire roof inspected for any potential problems. You will want to make sure that your roof isn't sagging, has not developed any leaks, and does not have any other potential vulnerabilities. If you aren't sure what to look for, a roof rejuvenation solution service can have a quick look. Make sure that your flashing is not damaged. When flashing looks rusted or warped, it might need to be replaced.

Shingles and Other Damage

You will want to have your shingles inspected to make sure that they are in good condition. If you do not have your shingles repaired, your roof might start to develop leaks and other problems. Make sure that there are no cracks in your shingles and that they are not curling. The best way to have your shingles repaired is to contact a roof rejuvenation solution. If it starts to rain and your roof is not in good condition, the water will infiltrate into your roof and will cause it to become damaged. 

Roof Sealants

Your shingles will have a difficult time handling the heat that comes from summer. Therefore, you will want to have a protective coating applied to help make sure that your roof does not become damaged and so that you can extend the life of your roof.

Your roof will first need to be cleaned off. Then, you'll need to apply a sealant. Because this can be dangerous to do, you will want to hire a professional roofer to apply the sealant.

When to Replace Your Roof

It might be a good time to have your roof fully replaced before summer. By doing so, your new roof will be better able to handle the stress that it will be placed under as a result of summer. You could have a new roof installed over your existing roof or you could have the roof rejuvenation services remove your current roof first before installing the new one.
