5 Things your roof wants you to do for it NOW
We are lucky in California that our weather consistently provides virtually NO rain July, Aug or Sept. Well, October is not that far away so this is a great time to check your roof for these 5 issues.
 
1) Vegetation should not be touching your roof
 
What's this look like?
Tree limbs dangling over your roof with branches touching the roof. or bushes that have grown so tall they are touching your roof line.
Tree limbs and hedges touch the roof and cause excessive wear and tear on the roof
 
What's the problem? When the wind blows, that vegetation rubs your roof, accelerating the wear and tear on it. The sun and the wind are hard enough on a roof, don't let vegetation decrease the life of your roof. Vegetation can trap moisture against your roof causing moss, fungus, and algae to grow on and under your shingles. Additionally, vegetation can act as an access way for bugs and rodents such as roof rats.
 
Remedy: Cut your hedges back so they are not touching your home anywhere. Hire an arborist to cut tree limbs back so they are not touching your roof.
 
2) Debris on the roof
 
What's it look like?
Dry leaves and vegetation on the roof, ... more
