Your roof is one of the greatest investments you will make in your home. Though time can take a toll on your roofing, M&J Roofing LLC of Waterbury, CT, offers comprehensive, consistent maintenance plans to ensure it stays in the best possible condition.

If you’re uncertain how often you should get a professional roof inspection, M&J Roofing can help. The first step to deciding the frequency is discovering how roof inspections can benefit your home. A dedicated roofing contractor will come to look for signs of damage or deterioration on your roof, as well as your gutters.

Signs you need roofing repairs include shingles that are loose, curling, missing, or torn, as well as sagging or water damage. Of course, visible holes and light penetration will call for an emergency roof repair. If your roofing contractor finds serious problems with your roof, they could recommend an immediate roof replacement. However, with consistent roofing inspections, you can avoid major alterations altogether.

The National Association of Home Builders recommends a roof inspection at least once every three years, although a new roof can wait about five years before a call to your roofing contractor becomes necessary.

If your local area has recently experienced hail, wind, or extreme thunderstorms, you will want to get a roof inspection shortly after the event to check for damage and make sure repairs are finished as soon as possible. If you allow even slight roofing damage to fester, it could result in costly leaks or mold development down the line.
