Getting Your Roof Ready for Winter

As winter approaches, itโ€™s essential to prepare your roof to withstand the colder months and avoid costly repairs.

Hereโ€™s a checklist to ensure your roof is ready:

  • Inspect for Damage: Check for missing or damaged shingles, cracks, and signs of wear. Repairing these early prevents leaks and further damage when snow accumulates.
  • Clean Your Gutters: Clear gutters and downspouts of leaves and debris to avoid water buildup and ice dams that can cause damage.

  • Check Attic Insulation and Ventilation: Proper attic insulation keeps your home warm and prevents ice dams from forming on your roof. Ensure vents are free of blockages to maintain good airflow.
  • Trim Overhanging Branches: Heavy snow can cause branches to break and damage your roof. Trim any overhanging trees to minimize risk.

  • Install Ice and Water Shields: Consider adding ice and water shields along the eaves to protect against water infiltration and ice dams.
  • Examine Flashing: Inspect flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights for any gaps or damage. Secure or replace flashing to keep water out.
  • Schedule a Professional Roof Inspection: If youโ€™re unsure about the condition of your roof, schedule a professional inspection. A roofing expert can spot issues that may not be visible from the ground.

By taking these steps to get your roof winter-ready, youโ€™ll protect your home from the harsh elements and ensure your roof lasts for years to come. If you need more help with roof maintenance in Kalamazoo, MI weโ€™re always here to help. Give us a call at 616-315-2777.
