Summer Storms

6/7/2020 (Permalink)

Things are starting to heat up again, and that means summer is on the way. Not only is the season changing, but so is your list of what you have to keep track of for your home. Jack Frost may have left some damage to your home, and now is the opportune time to assess and repair the damage before anymore is inflicted by a summer storm.

Roof

The roof is one of the many crucial parts of your home. It shields the interior from rain and other hazards from the elements. Make sure to check your roof and attic to ensure there are no leaks. Especially be concerned if you see damp or wet areas in your attic. This may have been caused by snow and should be repaired as soon as possible.

Gutters

Gutters allow water to flow off the roof. Relieving stress from it and removing buildup will aid in preventing leaks. Leaves and other debris can build up in the gutters and stop the water from moving. Clean out the gutters and remove the debris in order to restore water flow.

It is important to check these places in order to prevent mold growth and your leaky roof may cause a moldy attic or even worse.
