Danger Signals
LEARN THE SIGNS THAT YOUR ROOF NEEDS REPAIR OR REPALCEMENT
- Leakage in attic after wind-driven rain. Possible cause: Leaky or inadequate shingle underlayment or deteriorated flashing
- Blistering and/or peeling of interior and/or exterior paint. Possible cause: Excessive temperature or high humidity due to poor attic ventilation
- Stains or interior ceilings and walls or mold and mildew growth. Possible cause: Inadequate of faulty shingle underlayment allowing leakage or inadequate ventilation.
- Exterior decay, sheathing, and/or siding. Possible cause: Poor attic ventilation.
- Missing, cracked or curled shingles. Possible cause: Shingles have reached the end of their useful life.
- Dark, “dirty-looking” areas on your roof. Possible cause: Environmental pollutants; vegetation, fungus or algae; loss of granules due to age of shingles.
- Excessive energy costs. Possible cause: Insufficient attic ventilation causes heating/cooling system to run excessively.
In hot weather, inadequate ventilation will trap hot air in the attic, causing air conditioning systems to work harder, or leaving your home’s interior hotter and less comfortable.
Attic ventilation: In both hot an cold weather, insufficient attic ventilation may cause moisture in the attic to become trapped and condense on the rafters. This condensed moisture can drip down onto the insulation and reduce its effectiveness.
Excessive energy costs can result.
