5 Reasons Summer is Best for Roof Touch-Ups

There’s no better time than this season to get some home improvements done. Consider having your roof touched up if your roof is not up for replacement. Regular residential roofing maintenance, done professionally, can help prolong your roof’s service life, and help prevent premature and expensive roof repair expenses.

Here are reasons this summer is the best time to have your roof maintained.

1. The weather is perfect – You’re less likely to experience long rain spells during summer. This means you won’t have to worry about the weather slowing down the roof maintenance process. This also lets you plan ahead on any summer activities for your family without worrying about the roofing appointment getting postponed.
2. More convenient for the family – Coordinating the family’s schedules is much easier during summer break. You can schedule your roof repair, maintenance, or replacement while the kids are at camp, or have them spend the weekend with the relatives. If that’s not an option, it will be easier to find a reliable babysitter during summer as opposed to during school season.
3. Easier material delivery – In case of a major roof repair or complete roof replacement, roofing materials may have to be delivered to your home in advance, and will need to be stored in a shed or driveway. There would be no risk of materials getting rained on during this seasons, which could otherwise be problematic for wooden materials.
4. Lower chance of delays – While summer is certainly the busiest season for roofing contractors, delays are less likely to happen. This is because contractors can keep to their schedule without getting delayed by inclement weather; you can be confident that your roof touch ups will be completed on time.
5. You can immediately test the attic insulation – The warm weather provides a nice indoor-vs-outdoor contrast, perfect for testing the attic insulation right after repair or installation. You should feel an immediate difference in temperature when you climb inside your attic.
