Champion Exterior, a roofing contractor offering its services in New Jersey, has released a blog post that provides information on how homeowners can get affordable preventative roof maintenance. The blog post can be read in its entirety at https://www.champion-exteriors.com/post/why-preventative-roof-maintenance-is-crucial-and-how-to-get-it-affordably.
The blog post begins by reminding homeowners that prevention is always better than cure. A roof is an integral part of the home’s structure and can cost a small fortune to fix if it ever gives in. Even though one cannot control the weather and damage from act-of-god events such as storms or hurricanes, homeowners can definitely take a few steps to ensure that their roof is able to withstand the wear and tear of normal life. Regular roof maintenance will extend a home’s life and even help the homeowner secure a good return on their property investment if they ever decide to sell.
Regular roof maintenance will allow homeowners to prevent leaks and water damage. Water damage can be devastating for any roof regardless of its age. Fixing leaks by performing spot repairs will greatly increase the life span of the home’s roof. Dripping ceilings, if ignored, can lead to the water collecting and then breaking through the house all at once damaging precious furniture, possessions, and flooring.
Weather damage from factors such as heavy winds, torrential downpours, sunlight, and UV rays can beat down on most regular roofing materials. Periodic checks and replacement of broken or cracked roof tiles to fix localized damage is an effective way of preventing the damage from affecting a larger area.
Finally, a stable and secure roof shields the rest of the home from the elements. For example, a weakened roof can cause organic and roofing materials to accumulate in gutters and downspouts which can get clogged and cause the home’s drainage system to fail. Another example provided by the blog post is water seeping into the wooden structure of the house, saturating the insulation and causing it to mold, and affecting the home’s energy efficiency leading to higher energy bills. If the drywall is affected and the leaks make their way into the house, electrical wires that are exposed to dripping water can cause shorts, power outages, and even be hazardous to the lives of those living in the property.
A professional roofing company such as Champion Exterior will have the know-how to look for the little details that have the potential to become bigger problems further down the road. Average homeowners usually won’t have the experience to detect signs of erosion that may require repair or replacements. Most homeowners need a trusted contractor who provides an honest analysis of the roofing situation and suggests a plan of action to fix what is essential at a reasonable cost.

The blog post then discusses the major factors that affect the longevity of the roof such as organic growth of moss, fungus, and other vegetation, exposure to extreme and harsh weather, and environmental conditions like torrential downpours, snow, ice, hail, UV rays from the sun, and pollutants, manufacturer’s defects, a structural movement like seismic activity, settling of the ground, and thermal contraction and expansion, roof design flaws and inadequacies like structural deficiencies and unsuitable drainage systems and flashings, and external hazards to the integrity of the roof such as overhanging tree limbs.
The company promises a complete repair report following the evaluation of a customer’s home that identifies needs such as resealing and or replacement or pipe flashings, resealing, and or replacement of damaged or loose shingles, service or replacement of roof-mounted attic fans, an inspection of roof ventilation, attic inspection (checking for signs of leaks, improper ventilation), repair or replacement of transition flashings, an inspection of windows above the roofline, and inspection of siding on dormers.
