Winter is right around the corner, and for St. Louis homeowners, that means it’s time to ensure your roof is ready to handle snow, ice, and freezing temperatures. A little preparation now can save you from costly repairs later.
Look for missing or damaged shingles, sagging areas, and cracked flashing. These issues can allow water or ice to seep in, causing leaks or structural damage.
Bade Tip: Schedule a professional inspection to catch problems early. Bade Roofing’s experts can pinpoint and fix hidden issues before they worsen.
Clogged gutters can lead to ice dams, which force water under your shingles and into your home. Clear out leaves and debris to ensure proper drainage.
Proper attic insulation prevents heat from escaping your home and reduces the risk of ice dams forming on your roof. Ensure your attic is adequately insulated and ventilated.
Heavy snow and ice can weigh down tree branches, causing them to snap and damage your roof. Trim any branches near your home to minimize the risk.
A professional maintenance check can identify and resolve small issues that might become major problems during the winter.
