Having a properly functioning roof is of the utmost importance, especially in Orlando. The frequent rains of Central Florida mean that even small openings in your roof can let in several inches of water in a matter of days, water that can then cause major damage to the interior of your home. Roof openings also allow the area’s abundant insect life to invade your home in massive numbers. A faulty roof can even impact your electric bill. Interior air can escape through faulty roofs, meaning that your air conditioner will have to work even harder to cool your home, potentially to the tune of over one hundred dollars a month.
Routine roof maintenance helps to ensure that your roof stays in working order and can even extend its usable life by several years. The Orlando elements are extremely harsh on roofs, especially the high temperatures, heavy rains, and frequent wind storms. Over time, your roof succumbs to the forces of nature and begins to break down. Luckily, this deterioration is gradual and can be slowed. Routine maintenance procedures such as the clearing of debris and washing can reduce the rate of deterioration, and others such as routine anti-pest treatments will prevent other forms of roof damage. Perhaps the single most important aspect of roof maintenance is early detection of problems. If you are able to identify potential roofing issues before they worsen, you can preserve the structural integrity of your roof and prevent the damage from spreading to the interior of your home. For this reason, 1-800-Roofcare recommends that all homeowners have their roofs inspected by a professional contractor at least twice a year.
It isn’t possible to predict what types of roof repair you will need over the life of your roof, because there are simply too many variables to consider and so much is up to chance. Some roofs will go their entire lives without needing major repairs, while others will have to be entirely replaced after only a few years. Certain types of roof damage can strike at any time, such as damage caused by hurricanes or falling trees, but most tend to be more prevalent on older roofs, such as bleaching or cracked tiles. One form of roof repair that all owners should expect is replacement. Even though our roofs are designed to withstand even the fiercest elements, eventually the forces of nature take their toll. After a number of years, the integrity of all roofs is degraded to the point where repairs are either practically impossible or prohibitively expensive, and the roof must be replaced. The usable life expectancy of a roof varies tremendously, with some materials barely making it past twenty years and others lasting nearly a century. Orlando homeowners should be aware that roofs in the area tend to last several years less than those in more temperate climates.
