Baltimore Roofing Company Provides Repair Advice Following Storm Damage

Baltimore, MD - based McHenry Roofing is reaching out to homeowners in their community to offer repair advice in the wake of recent storm damage. Given how vital a roof is to a house’s integrity as well as the protection and peace of mind of its inhabitants, the company is eager to share their expertise with all who find themselves in need.

Generally, the protection offered by a roof goes unnoticed by the members of its household, and the company is quick to point out that this means the roof is doing its job correctly. It acts as a barrier that keeps out the elements and functions in subtle ways to help maintain the interior temperature and conditions of the house. However, when the members of a household find themselves becoming increasingly aware of their roof’s presence, they are likely to actually be noticing a problem in its structure.

This can be represented in many ways, from odd noises during windy weather to leaks and so on, and such issues tend to become more prevalent in the aftermath of a heavy storm. In such situations, the company reminds their community that they are always on hand to inspect the roof in question and ensure that it is still in good working order. Should any issues present themselves during an inspection, McHenry Roofing is more than capable of resolving the matter both quickly and professionally. They also offer a variety of other roofing services, such as skylight installation which can be read about at https://s3.amazonaws.com/mchenryroofing/press-releases/mchenry-roofing-offers-skylight-installation-service-in-baltimore-maryland.html.

Prior to calling upon professional help, however, homeowners can take a few simple and safe steps to determine for themselves whether their roof endured the last storm unscathed. If they can reach their attic, for instance, they should examine the interior of the roof for any obvious holes. This process is likely to be much easier during the day as sunlight would illuminate any big holes or gaps in the decking. Similarly, a flashlight can be used to check for evidence of damage caused by moisture, such as dark stains, streaks or sagging.

Outside, the roof’s shingles should be checked for signs of wear and tear. For instance, homeowners may notice that some shingles are cracked or curled, especially if the recent storm had high winds and caused debris to strike the roof. Similarly, any missing shingles should be identified and replaced as soon as possible. Furthermore, the company advises that any debris still left over on the roof should be cleared off immediately. Fallen tree branches and other objects, for instance, can rub the granules loose from a roof’s shingles over time, and they may even hide more extensive damage such as cracks and holes beneath.

Should such damage be noticed, homeowners are advised to seek professional help as soon as possible. Roofs can be surprisingly difficult to fix, especially if the party attempting the repair is unfamiliar with the appropriate safety measures that should be taken during the process. Fortunately, McHenry Roofing can be contacted for assistance at any time. As they state in a recent blog post, “Whether it is due to wind or rain, our roof repairs stand up to the elements.
