Roofing Preventive Maintenance: What You Should Know
The importance of the roofing system as an overall component of any building type–be it residential, commercial or industrial, cannot be overstated. For the most part, this includes controlling the temperature of the interior environment, maintaining the comfort of its occupants, and protecting the property’s contents. At the same time, however, it is also one of the most neglected parts of any structure.
While some roofing systems require more upkeep than others, planned and regular maintenance with American Roofing and Sheet Metal, your trusted roofer, ensures that your roof provides satisfactory performance for its expected life. Prevention is better than cure, so the saying goes, and the best preventive measure you can do is to conduct regular inspections with us to identify and prevent problems before they even happen.

When Do You Start a Maintenance Program?
The best time for the creation of a roof maintenance program is actually during the roof’s design and construction phase. Built with preservation in mind, roof maintenance programs can significantly reduce the annual operational costs of any property.
Regular inspections are the foundation of any sound roof maintenance, which should be done at least twice a year. Spring inspection may reveal any possible damage resulting from winter conditions while an autumn inspection is crucial for any preventive action that may be in need before winter arrives.
