Fall’s Getting Close: Taking Care of Your Gutters and Roof

Fall is coming soon and it’s best to be ready for it. The new weather conditions brought about by the change in climate will lead to new challenges and situations for your home’s exterior. Before fall arrives, your home’s roof and other elements will need to be in top shape or even upgraded. A1 Roofing & Construction gives some advice on how to prepare for fall.

Problems to Take Care Of Before Fall

You need to take care of your gutter system. Your gutters are crucial to preventing water damage and they can’t do their job right if they’re clogged. Make sure that your gutters are clean and that they are undamaged by calling a professional gutter and roofing contractor in Tiverton, RI for the job. We specialize in all aspects of your home’s roof system and our experienced team will detect whether your gutters need a tune up.

While you check your gutters for debris, you may notice the presence of roofing granules. This is a sign that your asphalt roofing shingles are nearing the end of their service life. You might want to consider a roof replacement. Without the granules, your shingles are no longer adequately protected from the weather. This increases the risk of leaks. Along with inspecting your gutters, be sure to observe your roof for any signs of damage or problems such as curling or missing shingles, cracks, or gaps in the metal flashing.
