San Diego Roofing Tips
Heavy precipitation, UV radiation, and the passage of time contribute to a leaky, damaged roof. This can lead to pest infestations, energy waste, and further structural damage to your home. Follow these tips to ensure the health and longevity of your roof.
- Keep your gutters clean. Clogged gutters are one of the most common reasons for roof leaks, causing water to build up when it rains. Clear out dead leaves, branches, and debris from your gutters regularly.
- For those San Diegans in the mountains to the east, ice can easily build up under the singles and gutters. Use rain and ice shields and consider installing a drip edge to minimize ice damage.
- Proper ventilation can prevent many common roofing problems, including dry rot. If possible, install ridge or soffit vents. Consult roofing contractors in San Diego for other ventilation options.
