Spring Fix-Ups: Roofing

Posted on March 22, 2017 in Seasonal Home Tips

Spring has officially sprung and at P.J. Fitzpatrick, we want to help you give your home a seasonal update. In this series, we’ll explore the best home fix-ups that you can do during the spring that will be beneficial for the rest of the year.

Spring is a great time to replace or repair your roof. We just had a long winter, which means your roof may have suffered from damaged or missing shingles, ice dams, leaks, wind damage, and more. These issues are ones you shouldn’t ignore and should be addressed as soon as possible so your roof’s integrity can be restored.

Inspection

Since the weather is warming up, our roofing experts recommend scheduling an appointment with us to inspect what the winter season brought. We’ll send a professional out to your home to take a look at your roofing system and determine whether it needs our attention. After that, we’ll set up a repair or replacement as soon as possible.

Repair/Replacement

Whether we repair or replace your roof is based on several factors and we can help you determine the right move to make. If your roof is still fairly new and has minimal damage, we can fix up things like leaks, flashing damage, chimney damage, missing shingles, venting issues, and more. If, however, your roof is old or it has experienced significant damage like a rotting structure, buckling shingles, roof valleys, or a collapse, we’ll recommend a roofing replacement. At P.J. Fitzpatrick, we offer a variety of shingle styles and shingle colors to complement any type of home, so if a roofing replacement is in your future, we can help you choose the right one.
