The heat of the Texas summer sun followed by the September rains can play havoc on our roofing systems in McAllen. With asphalt shingles being our most common roofing material, the summer heat can bake the life from them, causing the shingles to become brittle and fragile. Once roofing shingles enter this deteriorated stage, anything can happen. You could suddenly be faced with leaks in several areas of your roof.

Possible damage from a leaky roof

Once your roof has started to leak, you need to take preventative measures as soon as possible. You need to contact 1-800-Roofcare to have one of our roofing specialists to come to your home, conduct a free evaluation, and prepare for you an estimate to repair your damaged roof. The damages that could cause a roof to leak are many. They range from your roof’s surface just getting old to a seam or crack opening up, and allowing water to enter. Here are some kinds of damages that could occur within your home by water penetrating through your roofing system.

• Sheetrock Damage – Once water has penetrated your roofing system, the first place that it becomes evident is usually in the sheetrock ceilings and walls of your home. A dark discoloration will mark the spot initially. Once the rain has stopped and the water dries, there will be brownish stains remaining. If a leak goes unattended, the sheetrock will eventually crumble and loose its strength.
• Wood Damage – If water from a leaking roof continually saturates an area of wood, the wood could become a haven for fungus to grow. Wood fungus creates a condition called dry rot. Once the moisture is closed off, the wood will appear to have lost its strength and becomes dry and brittle.
• Mold Damage – Mold loves to find an area of moisture tucked in behind a wall or in the corner of a room. Here mold will flourish. When your roof allows a small amount of moisture to penetrate your home, often unnoticed, but in the same area, this small leak will be enough for mold to reproduce and spread. Not only is mold destructive to the surface on which it grows, but it also poses a serious health hazard to those living in your home.

These kinds of costly damage can be prevented through 1-800-Roofcare’s maintenance program.  By speaking to one of our experts, you can institute a yearly maintenance program to keep your roof in tip top shape and prevent costly repair issues.

What if I have to replace my roof? 

When it does become time for your roof to be replaced, there are many different kinds of materials from which to choose.

• Asphalt Shingles – Asphalt shingles are the most common type of roofing system found in the area. Shingles are easy to find, are the most affordable roof covering available, and there are many colors and design variations. Given our extreme heat, a roofing shingle system may only last 15 years.
• Metal Roofing – Metal roofing offers the most in terms of variety of material, design, and color. Metal roofing also offers a wide range of initial cost. Steel roofing offers great variety, but aluminum roofing has gained in popularity. Aluminum roofing comes in a variety of designs, including a pattern that looks much like slate tiles, and another that looks much like an asphalt shingle. Copper roofing is the most expensive type of common metal roofing materials, but copper roofing can last hundreds of years.
• Solar Panels – Solar panel roofing has the appearance of asphalt shingles, but instead of being asphalt, they are constructed to absorb the sun’s rays and convert that energy into electricity. The cost to have such a roof was once prohibitive, but recently the costs have dropped dramatically. If you are interested in converting free solar power into a way to reduce your energy costs, then this is it!
• Tiles – Tiles take on many shapes and colors, along with materials. The most common is the familiar red clay tiles. A tile roof can last a long time with life spans reaching and exceeding 35 years. If foot traffic is kept from the roof, preventing the cracking of the roofing tiles, then the protective underlayment, which is the waterproof protection for your home, will last much longer. So, when your roof is cleaned or your chimney is repaired, find ways for repair personnel to avoid your roofing tiles.
