Seeing problems with your roof can be alarming. Here are a few signs that you should look out for.
Animal Nests
You may have a pest problem. If you’ve noticed scurrying noises in the attic or crawl space, evidence of animals hanging out on your roof, or bird or rodent droppings in areas of the home, you may need to take steps to get rid of these pests.
Leaks
If you see brown spots, bubbling drywall, paint separating from the wall, mold, and wet surfaces inside your home, it’s time to get up on your roof and investigate. Water travels along pipes and internal structures before making its way to places such as walls and ceilings where you can see damage.
Damages Around the Chimney
When chimneys are not properly maintained, they can be a source of roofing problems. Crumbling or cracking bricks, gaps between the chimney and flashing material, and other problems can cause leaks and other issues with your roof.
Misaligned or Missing Shingles
Shingles can be damaged in a number of ways, including curling, warping, cracking, and missing altogether. Signs of shingle damage include roofing materials around the exterior of your home and wind-damaged shingles. Overhanging branches can also cause these problems. If you notice any of these sing you can contact Presidential Roofing for expert roofing services.
