Erin Harbison • December 4, 2017

The colder months will be here soon, so you need to prepare for adverse weather conditions. Nomad Roofing is the leading residential roofing contractor in our area because of our experience – backed by certifications – and our dedication to excellence in craftsmanship and customer service. We can help you with all of your roofing needs. Today, we will provide tips to help prepare your roof for winter:

  • Check for Leaks – The first thing to do is to check your roof for leaks. Look for water spots in your attic, loose or missing flashing, and cracked or damaged shingles. Even small gaps or cracks in your roofing system can become larger because of winter weather. Don’t hesitate to ask for our professional assistance. Our team can spot potential problems an untrained eye is not likely to notice.
  • Fix Leaks as Soon as Possible – Constant snow and cold temperatures mean that every leak has the potential to cause water damage. You might also end up paying more for heating because of wasted energy. Fortunately, we are a home roofing expert. Our roof repair professionals can quickly identify and assess any issues with your roofing system, and develop a plan that can minimize damage and restore the integrity of your roof.
  • Clean Downspouts and Gutters – Clogged gutters and downspouts can cause major problems, so you need to deal with them before winter arrives. You must give rainwater an unobstructed place to flow, or you might end up with water damage.
  • Schedule a Roof Inspection – Most importantly, you need a professional roof inspection. We can deal with any kind of roofing system and fix any roofing problem. We will help you make sure your home can handle winter weather.
