Common roofing problems
Whether you’re being proactive or you believe your roof is already showing signs of problems, here are some of the common contributors:
- Blistering: When moisture gets trapped inside shingles they can blister. In addition, improper installation due to excessive adhesive can also lead to blistering.
- Rotting: Shingles can rot when the core of the shingle absorbs moisture.
- Flashing: The joints of a roof are protected by metal flashing that prevents moisture from accessing the roof’s structure. Damaged flashing can wreak havoc on the roof, and eventually require a replacement if left unchecked.
- Spotting: Inside the home, wet spots on the ceiling are a surefire sign of roofing problems. Often, spotting is the result of damaged shingles leaks on the roof deck or damaged flashing.
- Mold: When moisture gets into shingles or the roof’s wood structure, mold begins to grow. As it proliferates, mold destroys the roof’s components.
- Weather: Hail storms, strong winds, ice, tree branches that fall on the roof — these are all common causes of roofing failures.
