As tough as Nebraska's extreme winters are on you, they're even harder on your roof; it has to bear the brunt of heavy snow and sudden storms. Some disasters are unavoidable, like a falling tree or a major ice storm, but you can limit some of the damage by making sure your roof is ready for the cold months ahead.

Maendele Construction, one of Hasting's most trusted roofing companies, recommends the following to make sure your roof is ready for winter:

  • Get A Thorough Cleaning: Leaves, sticks, and other debris can create ice dams and disguise small problems that can lead to major problems later. When you get your roof cleaned, inspect it for brittle, loose shingles; it’s a sign that your roof may not be ready for the winter.
  • roofClear Your Gutters: Neglected gutters get clogged quickly, especially if you have trees near your roof. Have them cleaned in the late summer or fall to prevent water draining around your foundation and ice dams from developing during storms.
  • Inspect The Interior: Go up into the attic and look at the underside of your roof, checking for water stains, wet insulation, or any places where daylight shines through. Having these problems fixed during nice weather will be much easier for everyone involved, and it can save you a great deal of money on future repairs.

Whether you need a new roof or just regular maintenance, you can rely on Maendele Construction for high-quality results and friendly, courteous service.
