Waiting to fix a roof problem is like playing Russian Roulette - inevitable with no sense of timing. Even with small issues, it's only a matter of time before it becomes so big it affects the entire roof system and causes expensive repairs. Read on to learn how you can avoid the five most common (and costly) scenarios that can happen if you ignore roof damage warning signs.

November is a busy time of year – you have to prep for holiday guests, plan Thanksgiving, start holiday shopping… the list could go on! No wonder winter roof maintenance is the last thing on your mind!

Unfortunately, roof damage doesn’t hibernate in the winter – it gets worse. If summer storms hit your home, you could end up spending thousands on expensive roof repairs. Scheduling a winter roof inspection now will prevent those costly problems from spiraling out of control.

If your home was hit by severe weather this winter, who knows what might be lurking up on your roof? Blisters, punctures, curling, or missing shingles… if left unrepaired the damage might come back to haunt you. If you have not yet scheduled a yearly roof inspection, now’s the time.

Is your roof Halloween ready or just plain scary? If your roof is playing tricks on you with leaks or missing shingles, we can help.

October is the perfect time to schedule a yearly roof inspection if you have not already! Fall and winter can bring a mixture of humidity, rain, ice, snow, and high winds that can wreak havoc on your homes.

As temperatures turn colder, be mindful of some scary signs throughout your homes that may spell potential problems. Identifying and addressing warning signs now will help save energy, time, and money in the long run!

It’s October, and that means it’s time to decorate for Halloween! While many people decorate their lawns, sidewalks and porches (the better to scare people with, right?), adding props and figures to your roof can add an extra “wow” factor to your décor.

Before you begin adding props and decorations to your roof, you first need to make sure it’s in good shape. The last thing you want to do is add a large spooky spider or inflatable only to have it cause more damage to your roof.

A new roof can average over $10,000, making it one of the more expensive home improvement tasks. However, don't let the cost scare you! There are several ways that your new roof could put the cashback in your pocket. Here's how:

For many, Labor Day signifies the end of what feels like summer. While fall doesn’t officially start until September 23rd, the feeling of summer (and warm temperatures) starts to disappear after the holiday. Get a jump start on home maintenance tasks by finishing these improvement projects while the weather is still warm. #4 is crucial year-round!

If your home is 15 years or older, features that were once “standard” are now turn-offs for potential buyers. If you’re thinking about listing your home, that’s probably not the best news. After all, no homeowner wants to hear their home is “outdated,” or the sale price should be lowered.

The good news is making small improvements to your home will not only entice new home buyers, but some projects can increase your home’s value!

So, if you are worried about curb appeal, thinking about selling your home, or interested in maximizing home value, this post is for you!
