Once your new foam roof is installed in your home or business, you might think that you won’t have to worry about roofing ever again – but that’s not quite true. While foam roofing has several advantages, such as being waterproof and energy-efficient, it does need regular maintenance to keep it running smoothly. Here are some top tips.
Keep it Clean
Your foam roof will work for you for years to come – but only if you keep it clean! Make sure that you arrange for roof cleaning to get rid of any debris or dirt from the roof itself, as well as your gutters. Keep everything clear and tidy! While it might be tempting to put furniture up on your roof to make the most of the Phoenix sunshine, it can also cause damage to the foam.
Leave Re-Coating to the Experts
Professional spray foam roofers will be able to re-coat and treat your roof faster and more safely than a layperson. They’ll know exactly how to clean the roof before treating it, and how much of the spray foam and other chemicals to use to get the right amount for your roof. Simply put, it’s not worth doing on your own – leave it to the experts who are trained in the process.
Don’t Forget the Professional Inspection
Even if you’re sure that your foam roof is in great shape, you should still schedule a regular inspection from a professional roofing company. They’ll be able to spot issues that might otherwise be overlooked, and give you advice on how to keep your roof in good shape. A good tip is to carry out an inspection once a year, though you should also call in the experts if your home or business has sustained structural damage, such as in an adverse weather event.
