Your roof is responsible for protecting your entire building. When your roof is neglected, your property could sustain extensive water damage. Know how to recognize the signs of roof trouble, so you can schedule building repair as soon as possible to prevent damage.

When to Get Building Repair for a Roof

1. Damaged Shingles, Roof Surface, or Flashing

2. Interior Water Damage

If mold has started to grow, the area will be green, brown, or black. Water damaged drywall may also be soft to the touch, and any paint on the surface will crack or peel. In addition to building repair on the roof, you’ll need to hire water damage restoration service for the home’s interior.

3. Granules in Gutters

Aged and deteriorating asphalt shingles will start to shed their granules. The granules slide down into gutters, where they get stuck and create clogs. If you find small colored grains in your gutters, this likely means that an aging roof needs to be replaced. When large amounts of granules build up, weeds may start growing in the gutters.
