The National Roofing Contractors Association recommends that homeowners have their roofs inspected twice a year. This may be too much. We recommend having your roof inspected at least once a year in Tucson.
To get started on a Do-It-Yourself Roof Inspection, try these tips:
- Check all gutters for debris or plants growing in them.
- Are the gutters securely fastened?
- Have a flat roof with roof drains – better check that out too.
- Make sure the drains are functioning properly on any roof.
- Look at chimneys for any cracks or damage.
- Check all flashings, and make sure they are securely fastened and sealed.
- Don’t forget to check all areas with caulking,
- Touch up any suspected deficiencies that have been caulked and are maybe cracking or missing caulking.
- Inspect under eaves and overhangs to look for damage that might indicate water leakage
- Also, make sure to check points of the roof that don’t conform to the regular roof plane, such as dormers or skylights.
