How to Properly Clean Your Roof During the Summer

Summer is the perfect time to work outside and around your home.  In fact, sometimes our to-do lists are so big that we forget all about the roof!

Some homeowners neglect their roof maintenance until it’s too late or sometimes just forget that cleaning is mandatory for a tip-top shape roof. Follow these tips to ensure your roof stays clean this summer and is in top shape for the winter months ahead.

  1. INSPECT

Loose or missing shingles are the beginning of a growing problem. Shingles need to be nailed down, secured and free of any rips or tears to prevent leakage. If you see something unusual on your roof, inspect and have it repaired IMMEDIATELY.

  1. CLEAR

It may not seem like much, but water, leaves and other debris can be very heavy while sitting in your gutters. As the weight accumulates, the gutters will be pulled downwards, possible separating from the roof of your house. Avoid this by consistently cleaning out your gutters and downspouts and ridding of any extra weight that may cause a problem. Professional Roofers recommends that you do this at least every other month.

  1. TRIM

It may seem unlikely, but it isn’t. Strong winds and thunderstorms can easily break branches or tear down trees that can end up puncturing your roof. . Be sure to trim all branches that are close to your home to avoid any falling damage. Doing so will also assist in keeping the squirrels and other tree dwellers away from your roof.

  1. SCHEDULE

A trained roofer will be able to detect any signs of damage or weak points on your roof.  It is important to have these areas fixed ASAP before an even larger repair is needed. Schedule a roof tune-up with a professional roofer in Toronto and save yourself from future headaches.

Terms & Conditions

PROFESSIONAL ROOFERS (a division of UXDU Contracting Inc.) offers one of the best residential and commercial warranties around.

Whereas most warranties cover only labour charges, leaving the customer to pay for material, tear off and disposal, Professional Roofers strives to go the extra mile and provide the customer with peace of mind and offers a non-prorated* warranty.

Our non-prorated* warranty covers: LABOUR, MATERIALS, TEAR OFF, and DISPOSAL.

If you have problems with your new roof and which relates to a defect in the materials. Professional Roofers will cover you according to the manufacturer’s warranty specifications for the materials we used on your house or building if the manufacturer fails to fulfil its own warranty for some reason other than the act(s) or default(s) of the customer.

ROOF SHINGLES: Our non-prorated* warranty is from 10 to 15 years depending on the package you choose when you sign the contract.

METAL ROOF: Our non-prorated* warranty is 15 years depending on the package you choose when you sign the contract. Our warranty does not cover animal damage, wind damage or any other acts of Mother Nature, discolouration, fading, corrosion, rust, fire, falling objects, or if the roof is mishandled, modified, or altered.

FLAT ROOF: We offer a five (5) year limited* warranty with respect to defects in installation.

EAVESTROUGH AND METAL WORK: We offer a five (5) year limited* warranty with respect to defects in installation and a twenty-five (25) year limited* warranty with respect to defects in materials.

SMALL REPAIRS: Normally we offer a one (1) year warranty for the area which we repair, only. However, if the problem occurs again during the one (1) year period, we are always willing to go back one more time to try and find a solution free of charge. If the problem continues thereafter, Professional Roofers will usually suggest a larger repair or new installation for which there will be an additional charge. If a whole new roof is required, the fee for the repair previously charged will be deducted from cost of the new roof.
