Roof Inspections

Portland has extreme winds and hurricanes, so it is crucial to have an excellent roof that can withstand these storms. But homeowners often have trouble deciding how often to schedule a roofing inspection.

Portland Commercial Roofing offers an annual roof inspection which allows you to be at ease knowing that your roof has the ability to handle all Mother Nature can throw at it.

What to Expect from Professional Roof Inspections

An inspection will check for unusual wear and tears, leaks, organic issues, windblown damage, and any other potential problems with the shingles. An inspection can reveal a lot of things.

Signs that show it's time to schedule an inspection

Trouble in The Attic

Your attic should become your main focus. Your attic should be checked for signs of water damage and sagging. If you notice any of these signs, it's time for a professional roofing inspector to inspect your roof.

Algae Growth

Every homeowner will find mold and Moss eyesore. Although growth does not always mean it is time for repairs, the dark streaks and patches should alert you to an inspection.

Your House Has Leaks

This is often the first sign of a roof problem. It is essential that you check for leaks in your house's interior and exterior, including water stains and drips. Don't wait until you notice any leaks.

It's more cost-effective to invest a little on minor repairs than on an entire replacement.

Rotting

Your shingles will rot if they are saturated with moisture. This could lead to large patches or darkened spots, as well as missing large roof granules.

You can still replace the rotting tiles without having to replace the entire roof. To prevent future cases of similar rotting, you may want to look into using non-organic materials such as fiberglass.

Shingles Damaged

Shingles can be described as rectangular blocks that overlap and cover your roof. These are the most used element in residential roofing. Be sure to call a professional immediately if you notice any problems.

Curling your shingles Incorrect installation could cause curly shingles. You may also need to check your ventilation. To avoid additional costs, it is important that you call a professional for assistance.
Blistering tiles - When water gets trapped between the roof shingles, it can cause significant damage and even breakage. These are most often invisible to the untrained eye. However, professionals can easily spot them during a roof inspection.
Bulging shingles This indicates that your roof might be lead cracking, and/or tearing. If they go untreated, it may be necessary to replace your roof.
Streaking on shingles. Streaks often indicate small leakages in your roof. It is best to consult a professional for advice.
Misplaced shingles - It’s as simple and straightforward as it sounds. A roof that is missing shingles could mean it's already vulnerable to damage. They could cause damage to your roof, and increase the cost of replacement.
