Winter has come and gone, which means we can enjoy some sunny and warm weather. Although the sunshine and warm weather is a breath of fresh air, springtime is coupled with some downsides of home maintenance. As your local roofing company in Tulsa, here are some springtime tips for the home.
Although there are downsides to springtime maintenance, it’s best to get them fixed for the remaining rainy and high wind season.
Your Roofing System
The most important element to inspect during the springtime are your roof shingles. During the winter, your home was rough housed with winter weather such as snow or hail. The winter weather can also cause buckling, cracking or missing granules that need replaced. By not having these replaced, come summertime, your roof can become more damaged from the hot weather and sun beating down on it. Other items within your roofing system such as flashing, vents, and chimneys should also be examined by your local roofing company in Tulsa. Not sure if you need a repair or a replacement, we’ll help you out!
Gutters
Gutters should be the next item on the list to examine. Your gutters could have experienced some damage from winter. You will want to see if your gutters have been broken, torn, or loose because no one wants a leaky gutter during spring. Having improper drainage can lead to water within your home and basement. Roofscapes can resolve this by making sure your downspouts and gutters are clear and drain away from the foundation of your home.
Siding & Exteriors
Your home exterior is very crucial to maintain and repair when an issue is discovered. For spring, it’s best to look your home over and have a professional look at your exteriors such as your siding and chimney for any problems that could have occurred during the winter. Don’t worry about fear of heights because our roofing and exterior professionals can do it for you!
Springtime is a crucial time to get your home prepped for the remaining seasons because of various weather conditions that can occur such as a tornado or heavy rain. It’s always better to play it safe and have your roof or gutters checked out rather than letting it go.
