As spring approaches, it’s time to do a maintenance check on your home. This way, you can make sure your home emerged from winter unscathed, and if there is any damage, you can repair it promptly and thoroughly.
Bradford Xteriors, your roof replacement specialist, discusses the key components of your home that need special attention.
Siding
As one of the most visible areas of your home, your siding can make or break the beauty of your home. Preserve its beauty by addressing signs of moisture damage, such as rot and mold growth. You should also consider switching to low-maintenance siding like engineered wood or fiber cement so you can enjoy many years of protection, convenience and curb appeal.
Window
Inefficient windows can compromise your comfort and increase your energy costs, especially when summer arrives. This is because they admit warm outdoor air. To prevent this issue, make sure to check and correct the caulking and weatherstripping. If the panes have cracks or won’t open or shut easily, it may be more cost-effective to invest in a window replacement.
Roof
Using binoculars, inspect your roof from the ground for signs of damage. Look for cracked or missing shingles, loose flashing, dark streaks and peeling exterior paint. You should also check your attic for water stains and mold growth. If you notice any of these problems, have an expert like us further assess your roof’s state and perform the necessary repairs. If we see that 25% or more of your roof is damaged, we may recommend installing a new one.
