Damage to One Part of Your Home May Be Worse Than You Think

Interconnected Parts

V. Nanfito Roofing & Siding, your first-rate local siding contractor, explains that the roof needs to be in top shape at all times, but especially on rainy or snowy days. Precipitation that lands on your roof will slide down the shingles and into the gutters, which lead the runoff into the downspout and away from your home. Siding plays an important role in this process; the right type of coating and thickness protects the walls from water damage and moisture accumulation.

Your windows help protect your indoors from the effects of inclement weather, let natural light in and maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. The paint and glazing seal the sash and glass together, which prevents water from seeping in.

The Cause of Problems

Holes, poor installation, damage, a wrong pitch of the gutters, bad quality siding, leaky windows or other number of factors may cause water to accumulate impair the system. Damaged roofing may allow moisture and water to seep into your interior. Once water enters your house, it can start affecting your insulation and your walls. One overcompensating part may reduce the function of others, causing more long-term problems.
