Lets post about True Nature roofing Colorado Springs. There are many things you can do to prolong the life of your roofing material and prevent leaks, additional damage or even the dreaded replacement. By inspecting your roof twice yearly (and after every storm), you can easily prevent some of the top 10 most common roofing problems. Use a pair of binoculars to conduct this twice yearly exam, because even walking on your roof can cause damage. If you must get on the roof, wear rubber-soled shoes, brace the ladder, and be very careful not to slip and fall.

A key piece of advice when it comes to maintaining a shingle roof is to wash it. At some point, your roof will start to look dirty, with long, dark streaks flowing from peak to eave. This is algae growing on your house. Algae won’t cause any immediate damage, but if you leave it long enough it can slowly rot your shingles. To get rid of these little plant-like critters, spray your roof with a 50 percent mix of water and bleach. The bleach will kill the algae fairly quickly, but you’ll also want to install copper strips just beneath your roof’s peak. When it rains, the copper molecules will stream down your roof, killing any algae fixing for a comeback.

Before a big storm hits, you’re going to want to know you’re being protected—not during. Wind storms, ice storms, snow storms, downpours, you name it, your roof is responsible for sheltering you. In its aftermath, you should check to see if your roof is capable of standing up to the outside elements. Some repairs might be needed if the storm was particularly nasty, but if you’re seeing a lot of water damage in the attic, then it’s time to talk about a replacement. If you’re buying a home or just inspecting one that you’re just settling into, it’s important that you make sure the roof is built to breathe. Without proper ventilation, your roof rafting and sheathing will rot because the heat and moisture trapped within. The roof materials will buckle and bend and the insulation will not be as effective as it should be, introducing a number of problems for your home.
