Roof Maintenance Service
At Quality Exteriors Roofing, we assist local home and building owners with the maintenance of their existing roofing system with the intention of extending the roof’s natural lifespan and avoiding premature total roof replacement.
Routine Roof Maintenance Saves Money
Roof Maintenance Begins at Roof Installation
When new roof systems are properly maintained from the beginning, they can outlast their warranties. In fact, some roofing manufacturers will extend your roof’s warranty if you’ve invested in a roof maintenance program immediately following your roof installation.
Protect Your Roof’s Warranty
The vast majority of commercial roof warranties require an annual or semi annual roof inspection and regular roof maintenance services to maintain the warranty status.
Find Minor Roof Problems Early
Annual roof inspections and semi-annual roof inspections can help locate minor roof problems before they turn into costly repairs. Finding and ensuring proper roof repair quickly can help avoid moisture getting into the building, causing water damage and potentially ruining decking and stock.
Save Money
Regular roof maintenance will save money by helping to avoid early roof replacements. It also ensures that your roof repairs won’t cost as much, since your roofer addresses minor roof repairs early.
Preventative Roof Maintenance Program
Regular roof maintenance can truly add years to the life of your roof while ensuring your roofing system maintains peak performance.
The cost of roof replacements are extremely high, so many home and business owners protect their investment by investing in regular roof maintenance services from a reputable roof maintenance company, like Quality Exteriors Roofing.
At QEI, we offer an extensive roof maintenance plan to protect your investment and fit into your budget.
Importance of Preventative Roof Maintenance
- Roofs that are proactively maintained last up to 60% longer than those that are reactively maintained
- The cost of a single large roof repair can equal to the cost of several years of roof maintenance payments
- Under 1% of roof failure is caused by defective roof materials. So, poor roof maintenance, severe weather, and poor installation make up the other 99%.
- When roofs receive proactive maintenance, they perform better, last longer, and are more reliable.
What Does Regular Roof Maintenance Include?
There are several tasks that should be addressed with regular roof maintenance. If you skip out on any of these tasks, you’ll likely be paying for it eventually via repair costs or the cost of a full roof replacement.
In general, roof maintenance includes the following:
- Roof inspection and small roof repairs
- Cleaning the gutters
- Removing any debris
- Removing mold
These are just a few tasks that preventative maintenance typically covers. Let’s take a closer look at some of these tasks.
Roof Inspection and Small Repairs
Regular roof maintenance services at Quality Exteriors include a general roof inspection and small roof repair work. For Louisiana residents, we recommend getting your roof professionally inspected at least once a year, as well as after any severe weather, such as a hurricane or tornado.
During the roof inspection, a professional roofer from QEI will look for loose shingles, loose flashing, loose nails, etc. He or she will further inspect any areas that look “out of place”. If they notice anything that looks “off”, typically they can repair it right on the spot.
Gutter Cleaning
The single most forgotten part of maintaining your roofing system is regularly cleaning out your gutters. If your gutters are left unattended to, the buildup can cause extreme damage to your roof.
Many homeowners choose to clean their gutters regularly by using a hose and gently removing any debris that are clogging the gutters. Others choose to climb on a ladder and remove the debris by hand.
If you’re not comfortable with either of these methods, contact a professional roofer at Quality Exteriors, and we will come take care of your gutters for you!
Debris Removal
Removing debris is actually another roof maintenance task that many home and business owners can also do themselves.
If you have a tool that can reach the debris on top of your roof, you can easily remove any pile ups.
Debris often land on your roof due to wind or rain, but if you don’t remove them, they can lead to bigger roof repairs down the road.
Mold Removal
Mold can spread from your roof to your attic and into other areas of your home, so it’s extremely important that any mold or moss is regularly removed from your roof.
While some may be able to spray small spots of mold away with a water hose, others will need to call a professional roofer to remove the mold from the roof.
How Do You Know if Roof Maintenance is Enough?
For some clients, maintenance simply isn’t sufficient enough to repair the current damage and unfortunately, in those cases, a full roof replacement is necessary.
The best way to determine whether or not roof maintenance services will be enough or if you need to invest in a new roof is to call a reputable roofer, like Quality Exteriors Roofing for a free roof inspection.
Roof Repair vs Roof Replacement
Getting your roof replaced will be a lot more costly than a simple roof repair. But, a replacement may be necessary if the damage to your roof is too extensive for repairs.
When you contact Quality Exteriors, we will neither sugarcoat or exaggerate your roof’s damage. We’ll provide a host roof assessment, based on decades of roofing experience and training.
Our roofing professionals will explore all of the roof repair options before we determine that your roof should be replaced. We want to make the entire process as easy for our clients as possible, so if your roof was damaged by a storm or adverse weather event, we will help you with the insurance claims process, as well.
