A well-maintained roof can save homeowners thousands by preventing costly repairs. Here are five easy yet effective maintenance tips every Canadian homeowner should follow.
1. Keep Gutters Clean
Debris-clogged gutters lead to standing water and leaks.
2. Trim Overhanging Branches
Reduce moss growth and shingle damage by trimming tree limbs.
3. Inspect for Moss, Algae & Debris
Use a soft-wash bleach solution to prevent biological buildup.
4. Check Your Attic for Leaks
Look for discoloration or mold in decking to catch leaks early.
5. Schedule Regular Inspections
Inspect at least twice yearly—spring and fall—to catch minor issues before they escalate.
