What Signs Should You Look for to Alert You of Problems with Your Roof?
* Leaks — One of the most obvious signs of roof problems, this often means your roof has been compromised in some way. Leaks will typically be noticed after a heavy rain and often mean you either have a rotted area in your roof or your shingles have come loose in the area. If you have dripping water coming from your ceiling after a heavy rain, you need to make sure you contact the Roofers Tulsa Oklahoma. They may be able to patch your roof, so you do not have to fully replace it. Through the inspection process, they will be able to give you information on how sound your roof structure is.
* Mold and mildew — If your ceiling has moldy or mildewed areas, this could mean you have a slow leak in your roof. Mold and mildew only occur in the presence of moisture, which you should not have in your ceiling, if your roof is working as it should. Any of these areas should alert you to have your roof checked for problems.
* Shingle damage — Though it can be difficult for you to see the damage when it occurs in your shingles, some damage is obvious. If you are missing shingles or see some are torn or damaged, this could cause water to begin to pool on top of your roof, seeping through the shingles and through the wood beneath. This can spell disaster for your home and cause thousands of dollars in damages.
