Common Residential Roofing Problems

The roof of your home is more complex than just a layer of shingles that prevents leaks. Apart from the shingles, the roof has structural and mechanical components that need to be paid attention to so that problems don’t result. Some of the common problems that plague residential roofs include:

• Degraded Utility Penetrations: Looking at a residential roofline, you may notice that there are pipes coming out that serve as plumbing and gas vents. Each hole in the roof is a potential leak. Over time the rubber around these penetrations will degrade and require repairs.
• Rotting Fascia and Soffit: When gutters clog, water backs up and overflows onto the fascia and soffit. This can cause rotting when it isn’t addressed. Additionally, clogged gutters can allow water to flow into internal walls and destroy insulation and structural members. At Cobalt Exteriors, Inc, we repair damaged woodwork and ensure that your gutter system is working properly.
• Damaged Decking and Flashing: A common cause of damage to residential roofs is from falling tree limbs. If the debris is heavy enough, it can damage the decking or flashing around your roof. In the case of an emergency, Cobalt Exteriors, Inc is ready to help. We can repair the decking and flashing and get your roof back to being watertight.

Routine Roof Inspections

Replacing and repairing roofs can be an expensive job. Due to the scale of the job, it is helpful for home and business owners to know how to prepare for the expense of roof work. To make these decisions easier, it is helpful to get the expertise of an experienced roofing contractor that performs routine inspections of your property.

There are two benefits of having your residential or commercial roof inspected. First, by having your roof inspected, you and your contractor are staying current on potential problems that your roof may have in the future. The contractor can make necessary repairs and give you advice on how to proceed as your roof ages. This can help you save lots of money in the long run by preventing water damage and maximizing the value of your current roof.

The second benefit of having your roof inspected is planning. By having routine inspections performed, you and your contractor can track the age of your roof so you can make an informed decision about when to replace it. By being able to plan, you can budget for the expense of replacing your roof and the process will seem less daunting.
