Benefits of Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are by far the most common form of roofing in Pennsylvania. That’s because they are a very cost-effective roofing solution that will provide you with years of protection at a fraction of the cost a metal, slate, or clay roof would. In the event your roof leaks, you will also find it very easy to repair a shingled roof.
With asphalt shingles roof maintenance is something you will not have to worry much about. Even so, you should have a regular roof inspection performed to check for signs of damage, particularly following a storm. Contact us right away if you notice buckling, curling, or an excessive number of granules in your guttering. Many times, we can resolve these issues quickly before they have a chance to cause you more serious problems.
Causes of Asphalt Shingle Issues
In most instances, asphalt shingles can last between 20 and 30 years. However, there are a few things that can result in the need for roof repair before that time. Here are a few things we often notice during a roof inspection:
- Storm damage from falling trees or limbs
- Indentations from hailstones
- Thermal tearing due to extreme temperature changes
- Lifted shingles due to ice or snow accumulation
- Mold or mildew that leads to moisture damage
Proper roof maintenance will extend the life of your shingles. Accordingly, we recommend you remove leaves and debris from valleys on a regular basis. Keep your gutters clean and repair any broken sections at once. Trim overhanging branches to reduce the odds that they will fall during a heavy windstorm.
