My roof is old, and I am afraid that it may start to leak. What damage could result if it did?

• Interior Damages – Water entering your home can cause a number of problems resulting in costly repairs. Water coming from a roof leak will leave behind brown stains in ceilings and walls once the water has dried. These stains are hard to remove or to cover. If the leak should first occur when you are not at home, irreplaceable papers and keepsakes could be ruin by dripping water.
• Mold – When moisture enters a home, it will find its way into areas that will have a difficult time drying out completely. These areas could be in the spaces behind walls. It is in these moist areas that mold spores will find a suitable place to grow and flourish. Eventually if moisture continues to be available to the mold, it will continue to expand within the cavities, and eventually throughout your home.
• Hidden Damages – Also, behind your walls comes the chance of the wood framing decomposing if there is a constant source of water because of a roof leak. Sills, studs, rafters, and sheathing can all be affected by wood destroying insects that have been drawn to the moisture. Wood fungus can also become an issue over time. Wood fungus will destroy the strength of a piece of wood, giving cause for the wood to need to be replaced. 

What would cause an older roof to start leaking?

• Storm Damage – Damage from storms is a common reason for older roofs to begin to leak. Strong winds will break off brittle shingles, and pull flashing from walls, valleys and the edges of your roof. Tree limbs and branches falling on an older roof will more easily cause damage to an old roof than a new one.
• Animal Damage – Rodents will be able to find spots on the roof’s exterior that is bare and easy to chew through on an older roof than a new roof. Animal holes are large enough to open your home to a steady stream of water during a heavy rain.
• Component Failure – There are times with an old roof where the various parts that comprise the waterproof barrier simply crumble and fail. The sealants that are used to make waterproof those areas where two pieces of flashing come together can one day crumble and be gone. A series of nails holding flashing or roofing in place, could, under the right conditions, crumble and be washed completely away during a heavy rain.

Could my roof be repaired?

Roofs cannot always be repaired, especially older ones. However, the roofing teams at 1-800-Roofcare will do all they can to extend the life of your home’s roof. If there is a way to repair your roof, we will find it. Please remember that any roofing system is designed to last a certain length of time. We offer a wide selection of roofing materials from which to choose when your home does need a new roof.

When I replace the roof of my home, what choice of roofing materials does 1-800-Roofcare offer?

• Asphalt – Asphalt shingles are always a great choice when it comes to choosing a new roofing system. The granules that are placed on the top surface of the shingles offer a wide assortment of colors. The material is easy to install, reducing the cost of labor compared to some other roofing systems. An asphalt-shingled roof is cost effective given that most will last twenty years or more under the right conditions and given the proper maintenance.
• Tile – Having a tile roof can provide years of worry free protection. Tile roofing systems consist of a dual layer of protection. Underneath the exposed shingles is a layer of weatherproof material, quite often rolled asphalt. The tiles are then placed over the rolled asphalt, providing a second layer of protection. The various colors and materials provide interesting design choices for your home.
• Metal – Aluminum and steel roofing materials have greatly changed over the years. Today’s materials come in a wide assortment of colors as well as designs. New application techniques have allowed metal roofing to take on some design features as well. Metal roofs can last fifty years or more, with copper roof lasting a hundred years or more.
