The Negative Effects of Delaying Roof Repair

Do you have a roof leak or other seemingly minor damage on your roof? If so, don’t delay repairs. When it comes to your roof, a minor issue can turn into a major one very quickly, which is why prompt repairs are essential. Read on as Nanfito Roofing & Siding, your experienced roofing contractor, explains why delaying roof repairs will always backfire.

Further Damage

A roof that looks like it is sinking is a bad sign, and shrugging this off and postponing the repair can cause further damage over time. The roof may completely collapse and cause further damage not just to the system, but also to the walls, siding, exterior and interior.

Widespread, severe damage caused by procrastinating a roof repair costs far more money to repair than repairing a small roofing problem. If you detect any sign of roof damage, seek the assistance of a first-rate company to provide you with the services you need.

Water Damage

Rain and melted ice may seep into your system, causing the wood to rot and allowing pests to infest the crawl spaces. When this happens, your roof may sink, your insulation may fail and the temperatures inside your home may fluctuate uncomfortably depending on the weather outside.

Open Seams and Laps

If you have holes or poorly installed parts such as flashing on your roof, strong wind can blow off parts of your roof, especially during extreme weather. Delaying roof repair may cause more problems; as soon as you see indicators of even minor damage, don’t hesitate to have it fixed.
