Top 5 Myths About Roofing

Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home. However, it is not something that most people think about until something is wrong. There are also many myths about roofing that need to be debunked.

Myth: Your Roof Does Need Maintenance

Fact: Just about every part of your home requires maintenance, and that includes your roof. Your roof needs to be looked at by a professional once a year. Your roofing specialist will examine the gutters, flashing and shingles. They can diagnose problems and fix them before they cause serious damage to your house.

Myth: Damaged Shingles Should be Covered With new Ones

Fact: This will actually cause more damage. Old, worn-out shingles will need to be removed and replaced. It is also important to note that there may be damage underneath the shingles. The best way to see the extent of the damage is to remove the old shingles.

Myth: Every Roofing Contractor is the Same

Fact: Roofing contractors have different education levels and years of experience. That is why it is important to make sure that your roofing contractor possesses the necessary skills and experience. You may also want to ask if you can see examples of previous work.

Myth: No Repairs are Needed Until After the Damage Is Done

Fact: You do not want to wait until your roof starts leaking before you get it repaired. Getting the necessary repairs will prevent leaks and further damage. This will help you save a lot of money.

Myth: Your Gutters are not Apart Of Your Roof

Fact: It is just as important to maintain your gutters as it is to maintain the rest of your home. In fact, your gutters are an important part of your roof. Gutters are designed to keep rainwater away from your home.

In 2004 Foam Experts installed a new foam roof on our 2 story townhouse. The whole process was easy and informative. They came out periodically, for free, to check the roof’s condition and do any necessary minor repairs. In 2014 and again in May 2022 we had them recoat the surface after a complete inspection. We have never had any leaks or issues with our roof. We love working with Todd and Marianne and really appreciate their excellent customer service and top notch quality of work.

It was a pleasure working with this company, from first contact for inspection and a quote, to our finished foam roof project. Their crew and crew leader were courteous, professional and friendly, and cleaned up so thoroughly each day, it was as if they had not even been there. Of course, no homeowner really knows how well the job was done until the next rainfall. The ultimate test was passed with an A+ when, a couple of weeks later, rain came down hard in torrents on two different days. I highly recommend Foam Experts Roofing, Inc.
