Make it a priority to check your roof in the spring to look for any winter-related damage and get your roof in shape to handle summer heat and rain. See if your roof is in need of repair: Cracked or torn shingles Missing shingles Sagging areas Curled shingles Water stains on the ceilings, which could point to a roof leak Water spots on exterior walls Rust or stains where exterior walls meet the roof Just like your home’s gutters, the sooner you make a necessary roof repair, the better. Water damage can lead to mold inside your home, and you definitely do not want that. Fix Your Roof For Spring By, Lauren Kowlacki A well-maintained roof is essential to your home’s condition. Even though a snow-covered roof makes a pretty wintertime picture, snow and ice build-up can get heavy and put too much weight on a weak roof. Ice dams, or blocks of ice that form in the gutter or edge of the roof, may prevent proper drainage and cause water to leak into the home’s interior. Ice can also puncture a roof. It is also possible that water had gotten underneath damaged shingles and caused rot. For this reason, you’ll want to check shingles for damage. You also want to inspect your rooftop ventilation system in the spring to make sure it’s not blocked so that heat doesn’t build in the attic over the summer.
