Your 2022 Roof Inspection Checklist
2
Introduction

• Well, folks, we made it! 2022 is here and with it
  comes a new roof inspection checklist. As long as
  you are staying up to date with all of your
  roofing needs, you should have a roof that lasts
  well into its lifetime with minimal issues.
• Of course, the opposite is also true ignore or
  neglect your roof and you could end up in a
  financial headache. The roof is one of the most
  important parts of your home or building, so
  follow along with these few checklist items and
  youll stay protected.

Schedule Your Roof Inspection

• Not exactly shocking, but having a professional
  look at your roof twice a year is going to be
  your best bet to making sure your roof is
  issue-free. A professional roofer is going to
  know what to look for, what issues need to be
  solved right away, and what the estimate for
  those costs will be. Theyre also the experts
  when it comes to roof, so if they dont see
  anything during your roof inspection, youll have
  the peace of mind that your roof is ready to
  protect you and your family.

Clean Gutters

• Weve said that the roof is one of the most
  important parts of your home. Well, the gutters
  are one of the most important parts of the roof!
  The gutters move rain, snow, and any other types
  of precipitation off your roof and away from your
  foundation. This makes sure you dont have water
  damage from piling storm water. But if the
  gutters are clogged, the water wont have
  anywhere to go and will pool up on your roof,
  which can lead to internal damage to your home.

5
Limit Moss Algae Growth

• You obviously dont want anything growing on your
  roof. Moss or algae can get under your shingles
  and even into your home if you dont fix the
  problem right away. There are a number of factors
  that can lead to the growth of algae and moss,
  like lots of shade or a wet climate. If youre in
  an area that is conducive to moss and algae
  growth, you are going to want to have regular
  roof inspections to make sure your roof isnt
  home to these invasive species.

6
Remove Nearby Tree Branches

• Tree branches that hang over your roof have the
  chance to cause damage to your roof if they fall
  in the next big storm. These possible issues can
  be solved if the branches that hang directly over
  your roof are trimmed. We also mentioned that a
  very shaded area can lead to moss and algae
  growth, so best eliminate that problem right away
  by trimming any overhanging branches.

7
Clear Off Debris

• The more debris that is on your roof, the heavier
  it is going to be. And that debris can absorb
  water when it rains, leading your roof to be even
  heavier and increasing your chances at water
  damage. And if the debris doesnt stick to your
  roof, it can run off into your gutter, causing
  the build-up that we mentioned in step 2. You
  want to make sure you are regularly cleaning the
  debris off of your roof to make sure there are no
  unnecessary issues.
