5 Tips to extend your roofs lifespan

Roofing Tips

Debris Removal

Maintaining your roof is an important part of ensuring it lasts long-term. It’s essential to keep the area around the roof free from debris since any buildup can help facilitate mold growth or accelerate wear and tear on shingles and other structures. To keep up with this task, it’s best to periodically remove leaves, twigs, dirt and any other debris that may have built up near or on your roof. This should always include the clearing of gutters to minimize any accumulation of fallen leaves or branches.

Inspections

The next step in extending the lifespan of your roof is performing periodic inspections. Titan Roofing recommends this once to twice a year (depending on exposure) to check for any issues such as broken or missing shingles, loose flashing, pooling water, or sagging areas in the home’s ceiling. If you come across any of these issues, we recommend contacting us to schedule repairs right away.

Trees & Branches

You should also keep trees nearby trimmed back to avoid overhanging branches that can cause scratches and damage to your roof. This can be done by yourself with the proper safety regulations, or you can hire a professional tree service company.

Proper Ventilation

Finally, attic ventilation should also be considered when extending the lifespan of your roof. Without adequate ventilation system in place, heat buildup during hot summer days may cause premature aging of shingles and may even lead to structural problems. Make sure air can circulate through the attic by keeping vents and other openings free from debris.

Damaged or Missing Tiles & Shingles

Wind and other general exposure can often contribute to the lost or damaged roof tiles or shingles. Not addressing this problem right away can rapidly contribute to other problems due as the result of exposure to moisture getting trapped in the roof contributing to wood rot and other structural concerns. If you notice that your roof has any loose or missing shingles we recommend not procrastinating this repair before it leads to other problems.

 


In conclusion, taking proper care of your roof is an important part of making sure it will last long-term. By following these tips, including removing debris and inspecting your roof regularly, performing repairs when needed, trimming nearby trees, and ensuring adequate ventilation in the attic, you can extend the lifespan of your residential roofing system.

From our Customers

I am the Vice President of Sun City Summerlin Neighborhood Maintenance Association (SCSNMA) and committee chair responsible for all the roof and stucco walls of our 459 homes. Titan Roofing has worked with us for the past 4 years and they are the best I have ever worked with. They are knowledgeable, respond quickly to problems, take pictures to back-up what needs to be fixed, repair with quality that does not need to be re-repaired, and work with our association to educate us and homeowners on the problems. The preventative maintenance we have them do twice a year on our flat roofs has extended their life.  They go above and beyond which makes one feel they are a partner and not just another contractor.

I want to thank Titan Roofing for a “Job Well Done”. I want to commend you for your staff’s professionalism and quality workmanship. Our property was not an ideal property to work on and your company exceeded our expectations on the timeliness and quality of the product you provided. Working on 28 buildings while people were living in these buildings and completing the project without any flaws was remarkable.

My Board of Directors and myself would like to thank Titan Roofing for the splendid job they have done on our construction defect litigation project. Our roofs were tested by a rain which amounted to almost an inch and the roofs held up admirably. My Board and myself would highly recommend Titan Roofing to anybody in need of any roof repairs or replacement.

The Avlia Park Homeowners Association has undergone an extensive reconstruction project and Titan Roofing was hired to completely replace each of the roofs in our 240-unit condominium complex. Titans’ employees exhibited a high-level of professionalism and worked hand in hand with multiple vendors. Their work was timely, efficient and always neat. Inspections of their work has shown it to be of the highest quality.

I was referred by our realtor after the home inspection indicated damaged and missing tiles along with a few other items. I called Titan and they sent someone right out to inspect and give us a quote. Once we closed on the house, I called and told them we were a go. Within the week they were out and had everything on the list repaired or replaced. They also provided before and after pictures which are really nice since I’m not climbing up there to look myself. Everyone in the office answered my calls and questions on the spot with a professional and courteous personality.
