Winter is almost here and it is important that you prepare your roof for the possibility of severe weather. By preparing your roof for winter, you will prevent the need for more extensive roof repair in the future. These are a few basic maintenance steps that should be followed to get your roof ready for winter.

**Before you start, consider that climbing on a roof can be dangerous. Roofing professionals are specifically trained to navigate roofs, and they have the equipment and expertise to see a potential problem before it escalates into a major issue. If you do decide to perform these maintenance steps, be sure to follow all the necessary safety rules for your protection. There are websites such as www.gaf.com/roofing/residential/diy/learn_roofing_safety, which lists ways to be safe while working on your roof.

1. CLEAN THE GUTTERS
Leaves and other debris will collect in your gutters and downspouts and can prevent rain water from being removed from your roof. This water will overflow and damage your roof, trim and siding. Cleaning out your gutters will also prevent the weight of this debris from causing the gutters pull away from the anchors which secure them to the house. Periodically checking your gutters and then doing a final cleaning once the trees are bare, will keep your gutters clear. Consider installing screens or gutter guards to prevent leaves from collecting in your gutters.

2. CLEAN YOUR ROOF
It is important to remove leaves, pine needles, dirt and any other debris from your roof's surface to prevent moisture and rot which will break down your roofing material. The best way to clean debris off of your roof is by hand using a broom or soft brush. Remember that applying too much pressure will remove roof granules which can reduce your roof's lifespan. Another method to remove debris is with a blower. Pay special attention to the valleys which can collect water.
Using a pressure washer to clean your roof is definitely not recommended. Pressure washing a roof can blow off granules or even take off shingles. These granules protect the asphalt in the shingle from the UV rays of the sun. Shingles have sealing strips on their backs and a pressure washer can sever the strip allowing water to get under the shingle. In fact, if you use a pressure washer to clean your roof, you may no longer qualify for your roof's warranty.
Algae, moss, or mold can be especially damaging to your roof's lifespan. Cleaning and treating these may require a professional to prevent damage to your shingles and prevent further growth. There are DIY cleaners on the market, however, to prevent damage to your shingles, always try the cleaner on a sample shingle.

3. CHECK YOUR CLEAN ROOF FOR DAMAGES
After your roof has been cleaned, a visual examination of the surface is needed. Check for missing, cracked, curled, or frayed shingles. This would be the time to repair or replace shingles. Also examine the flashing around the vents, chimneys, skylights or other protuberances because this is where water tends to collect.

4. CHECK YOUR ATTIC'S INSULATION AND VENTILATION
Your attic's insulation and ventilation are extremely important to the health and lifespan of your roof. Your energy bills are also impacted by having the right amount of insulation and ventilation in your attic. When sunlight hits your roof, it heats the air in your attic. Proper ventilation prevents the hot air from condensing, which causes moisture and mold from rotting your roof's supports. Additionally, the correct amount of insulation will prevent the hot air from seeping into your living space, causing higher energy costs.

In conclusion, preparing your roof for winter makes perfect sense. Not only will you have the peace of mind knowing that you have done everything possible to prevent damage to your roof, you will also know that there are no potential repairs waiting in the wings.

When deciding where to put your money in home improvements, it is always wise to know where you will get the most return on their investment. Knowing what buyers look for and the things that turn them off will help homeowners get the most resale value. There are some home renovations which will help homeowners to recoup most, if not all, of their money.

Most people assume that a new kitchen or bathroom will add the most resale value. Let's face it, a new kitchen with granite counters and new appliances can be a drawing factor in any home on the market. Renovated bathrooms are number one on the list for prospective buyers. These remodels can be counted on to add over 80 to 90 percent return on investment, according to The National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). These are the most expensive areas of home renovation because they are the areas where people spend most of their time.

First You Have To Get The Buyer In the Door
Realtors will tell you that in every home sale, you first have to get the buyers in the door. Very often buyers are already planning for interior renovations when they purchase a home. Primarily, buyers want to know that the home's existing structure has been maintained. They want to know that the plumbing and air conditioning are in good working order because maintenance issues can cost a bundle in the long run. A remodeled kitchen will not make up for a leaky roof or siding which needs replaced.

New Roof Value
According to homeadvisor.com, a new roof adds an average of $12,000 value to your home while improving its curb appeal. With the choice of colors and materials available today, it is possible to duplicate a rustic slate roof with asphalt shingles. Warranties on asphalt shingles used to be 15-20 years. However, premium-quality asphalt shingles may offer warranties as long as 50 years. Today's asphalt shingles can even help reduce cooling costs due to their ability to reflect solar heat. A new roof will also avoid building inspection issues at the time of sale.

Curb Appeal Sells Homes
A well-maintained home has a welcoming appeal.
This is why vinyl siding and vinyl replacement windows are also updates that are worth consideration. According to ISoldMyHouse.com, vinyl siding can add $8,000 to the asking price of a home with an 89 percent return on investment. Vinyl windows can improve a home's energy efficiency while bumping up the asking price of a home about $8,500 with an 85 percent return on investment.

Adding More Space
Adding more space can be an alternative to buying a bigger home in your current neighborhood. The National Association of Realtors says that for every 1,000 square feet added to a home increases its value 30 percent. Bathrooms have an 86 percent return on investment while adding bedrooms, sunrooms, and family rooms have a 70 to 80 percent return on investment.

Home Theaters
Home theaters are also high on the list for potential buyers. According to hgtv.com, "What you'll get back on your investment depends on the value of your house, the value of houses in your immediate neighborhood, the housing market where you live, how soon you sell after making improvements, and the quality of the project itself. " However, remember that you don't want to price yourself out of the neighborhood. Keep your additions so your house value is at the higher end of the neighborhood.

Home Maintenance And Personal Enjoyment
Finally, when deciding where to put your money in home renovations, keep in mind two things; home maintenance and personal enjoyment. Keeping your home's structure sound should be your first priority. If you're not planning on moving in the immediate future, put your money in the areas where you will enjoy it most.

 A leaky roof is serious business because, if left unattended, it can cause major damage to your home. In addition, the sooner a leak is attended to, the less chance of more expensive repairs down the road. According to fixr.com, minor leaks can lead to damage such as mold, rotted framing and sheathing, damaged insulation and ceilings. Some of the most common causes of a leaky roof are broken shingles, cracked vent booting or flashing, gutters that are clogged, condensation in the attic or a cracked chimney. Some leaks can be difficult to find. Hiring a professional to do a thorough roof inspection is important, especially after a severe weather event.

A roofing contractor usually charges around $3 per square foot for leak repair or $45 to $75 per hour. The labor hours range between 8 - 16, making the repair cost range from $360 to $1200. If your roof is steeper than average, repair costs can increase by 20% or more. This is also true if your roof has many architectural details to work around. You also may need to buy a permit from your county or homeowners association, without which you could be heavily fined. Permit fees average around $75.

REPAIR VS. REPLACEMENT?
Replacing shingles can be a relatively easy and inexpensive job. However, even if you saved some spare shingles from a previous roof replacement, this patch job will probably not match the rest of the roof. This may be a relatively small consideration if your roof is not very old and will extend its life for ten or fifteen years unless you plan to sell your home. A prominent patch can be a negative selling point.

If the damage is confined to one side of the roof, a partial re-roofing can cost thousands of dollars less than an entire replacement. This can make the color differences less noticeable. Partial re-roofing can be more expensive on a cost per square than a total replacement and all layers will need to be removed. This can add to the cost and result in a lopsided effect due to the old roof being a couple of inches higher than the new side.

According to Angieslist.com, the determining factors on whether to fix or replace your roof are the following:

• ROOF AGE - Most roofs will last between 20 and 25 years, depending on whether you have one or more layers of shingles and the ventilation.
• SHINGLES CURLING /BUCKLING - Curling shingles that are losing granules indicate they need to be replaced. It could also mean the roof is defective.
• ROOF VALLEYS - Missing or damaged shingles in the roof valleys is a sign a roof replacement is needed.
• MISSING SHINGLES/ SHINGLE GRANULES IN THE GUTTERS - These are signs your roof is failing. Lost granules indicate shingles are at the end of their life cycle. Darker color on parts of the roof is also a sign granules are wearing away.
• ROOF BOARDS SHOWING DAYLIGHT - Daylight showing through the roof boards, a spongy feel when walking on the roof, or moisture in the insulation are all indications a new roof is needed.

Even if only part of your roof is showing damage or wear, it may be smart to consider roof replacement. The roofing contractor and crew will already be on-site with scaffolding, ladders, and other equipment. Replacing the entire roof with most likely be less expensive than doing one side now and the other in a few years.

According to bobvila.com, if you do decide to replace your roof, choosing to tear off the old roof or install the new roof over the existing one is another decision you will have to make. Installing the new roof over the existing one will save you a little money now but runs the risk of greater expenses in the future. The International Residential Code (R907.3) states that a new roof cannot be installed over two or more applications of any type of roof covering. Much of this has to do with the weight on the structure of your home. Covering a roof with 1,500 square feet of shingles is almost equal to the weight of a two-ton SUV. Removing the old shingles will allow you to inspect the roof deck and sheathing for damage, plus the shingles adhere better if fastened directly to the roof deck. This will also allow you to check for wood rot and the presence of inadequate sheathing fasteners. Additionally, starting with an undamaged roof deck allows you the option of adding an ice-and-water shield membrane along the eaves.

Having your roof inspected every one to two years is a good way to protect your roof from potential problems. Having your roof inspected after any severe weather event will also catch any damage before it becomes even more extensive.

Sooner or later every homeowner will have to have a roof inspection. Why would this be necessary? In many states when buying a home, it is required that the roof be certified from inspection. Many lenders require an inspection before they will issue a check. Most homeowners assume their roof is properly installed and ready for severe weather. However, some roofs are vulnerable.and even the strongest roof can hide some weakness. In fact, The National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) recommends that homeowners inspect their roofs twice a year.

ATTIC - Your attic should be inspected for:

• proper attic ventilation
• insulation for proper R-value
• intake vents for blockage
• roof deck is sagging or if you can see natural light showing through the roof

FLASHING - Flashing should be inspected for:

• proper flashing (dormers, valleys, side walls, eaves and rakes)
• chimneys for cracks and deterioration

SHINGLE DETERIORATION - The inspection should include looking for signs of:

• ​loose, missing, curling, buckling, rotting shingles
• algae growth

EVIDENCE OF ROT AND MOLD - The inspection should look for signs of:

• water damage marks or dark spots with trails
• rot and mold (especially when there has been constant exposure to water in the wood rafters)

Having your roof inspected allows the homeowner to avoid all kinds of potentially expensive repairs. In fact, a professional roof inspector can help you avoid possible structural damage to your home. Roof inspections can determine the strength of a roof, its longevity, and when it will need to be replaced.
According to homeadvisor.com, roof inspectors have special procedures and super-technical equipment which help determine the lifespan of a roof without having to tear into it. Because you would not want anyone putting holes in your roof to inspect it, roof inspectors don't have to touch the surface of the roof to determine its integrity. Infrared rays locate parts of the roof that may have higher or lower temperatures than the other parts of the roof. "Heat may be escaping from these "hot spots."
The industry's best roofing companies will provide a professional roof inspection free of charge. This inspection should be free of add-on service charges or anything else involving a fee. There should be no obligation to purchase services or products. This inspection will also help with the insurance claims process for storm damage. Many homeowners aren't knowledgeable about what repairs or services are needed and covered by their insurance policy. A professional will inspect your roof, identify the areas of concern, provide advice on how to have these areas repaired, and help you prepare the insurance claim.
Finally, having a professional inspect your roof will bring peace of mind. Climbing onto a roof is a job for a professional who knows how to maneuver around a roof in a safe manner without causing damage to your roof. Knowing that your roof has been professionally inspected, what repairs, if any, are needed and having an expert available for help and advice will prevent the need for more extensive repairs in the future.

Summer Storms - Is your roof ready?

Everyone knows that tornadoes and hurricanes can cause extensive damage to your roof. However, moisture and rapidly rising warm air often brings furious summer storms. The summer weather, especially in humid climates like the south-eastern United States can bring intense storms. These summer storms, which tend to be fast and fierce, can bring rain, wind, hail and can be as serious as a blizzard or hurricane.

What kind of damage can hail do to your roof?
The amount of damage a hailstorm can do will vary greatly. Travelers.com states these factors that affect the type and degree of damage impacted by a hailstorm:

•  Wind- During a hailstorm, wind direction and wind speed can vary. This can affect the location and severity of hail impacts.
• Size and density - The size of the hailstones can affect the degree of damage. A hailstone can be as small as a pea or as large as a softball. Most do not have smooth edges, which also impacts the amount of damage done.
• Building materials - The building materials used absorb hail impacts differently. Hail can cause dings in aluminum siding, gutters, or asphalt shingles, however, it can crack vinyl siding or wood shakes. Hailstones can be dense enough to puncture a roof although the age and condition of the roof can affect the degree of damage.
• Barriers - Neighboring structures and natural barriers such as tree cover, landscaping, fences, or adjacent homes can reduce hailstone damage.

What does hailstone damage to your roof look like?
With asphalt and composition shingles, the hail damage can look like the following:

• Random damage with no pattern. 
• Hits that are black in color.
• Loss of granules, which may expose the roof felt.
• Asphalt and/or mat that appears shiny.
• Places where hail has hit may be soft to the touch.

With wood shingles the hail damage can look like:

• Random damage with no pattern. 
• A split in the shingle that is brown/orange in color.
• A split in the shingle that has sharp corners and edges. 
• A split in the shingle that has little to no deterioration at the edge.
• Marks or dents along the splits.

A severe summer storm can involve high winds. Wind-driven debris often causes the most damage. Summer storms can knock trees, power lines or poles onto roofs causing structural damage. According to mainsourcemgt.com, high winds can make defects in your roof even worse and damage neglected termination points. Summer storms are often accompanied by flash flooding which can mean a fast accumulation of rainwater which can damage the drainage system with a dangerous amount of weight.

The lightning accompanying a summer storm can occasionally cause a power surge (an unusually high amount of electricity briefly surging through the wiring). This can damage sensitive electronic equipment and appliances such as computers, digital washing machines, and televisions.

The following are ways to safeguard your home before, during and after a severe storm
according to networx.com:

• Regularly check trees and shrubs on your property. Look for loosely attached limbs, rot, disease, or insect infestation. Hire a professional to trim the tree or, if necessary, remove it.
• Install surge protectors to help prevent power surges. If severe weather conditions are forecast, unplug individual devices or power strips from their outlet. You don't need to switch them off.
• Prepare for power outages that may take hours or longer for the utility company to repair. Stock up on emergency lights and non-perishable, ready-to- eat food. (never use fuel-burning devices designed for outdoors inside the home, such as grills). Consider purchasing a generator as a standby source of electricity.
• Keep drains, scuppers, and gutters clear so they can handle a deluge of water.
• For those who live in a hurricane prone area, roof clips or hurricane straps can prevent having your roof literally blown off by the force of the wind.
• Seal cracks in places like the foundation and walls, next to windows and doors and around the chimney and vent pipes.
• If you have a basement, setting up a sump pump with an automatic moisture sensor will guard against flooding.

As soon as the severe weather has passed, you should inspect for these common issues:

• Debris and pooling water Cuts and punctures in the roof membrane
• Edge metal pulled up 
• Damaged perimeter flashing
• Missing or damaged HVAC equipment 
• Cracks or ware on exterior walls
• Damage to skylights, domes, or flashing

A severe summer storm can happen quickly and cause a great amount of damage. However, being prepared and knowing what you can do before, during and after a storm will help keep any damage limited.
