If neglected, roof damage can led to even bigger repair headaches for the homeowner &#8212; from animal infestation to water damage. So, how do you know when it&#8217;s time to change the roof? There are a few outside factors to consider.<\/span><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26155\" src=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Untitled-design-253.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Most homeowners are not aware of the lifespan of their roof until it\u2019s too late. But, the first step of knowing your roof\u2019s lifespan is knowing what outside factors are affecting your roof. This\u2019ll help you help your roof elongate its lifespan and be able to provide durability and stability for you and your family according to<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/accentroofing.com\/\">Dallas roofing contractors<\/a>:<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Inclement\u00a0Weather<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Outside elements affect your roof more than you might think. If you\u2019re in an area that deals with excessive inclement weather (snow storms, excessive heat, hurricanes, etc.) your roof will surely be affected more. Most roofing systems are built to withstand severe winds and the heavy pressure of debris, but your roof\u2019s breaking point shouldn\u2019t be tested.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">When it comes to excessive heat, this can cause your roof to deteriorate. If your roof is of a darker color it\u2019s more vulnerable to heat than a roof of a lighter color, since darker colors absorb energy more. Additionally, this heat can cause condensation inside of your attic because of poor ventilation. This\u2019ll make your wooden roof deck vulnerable to moisture, which causes even more problems as time passes like leaks.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">To combat against this excessive ultraviolet radiation, there are products on the market that you can purchase to protect your roof from those harmful U<\/span>V rays.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Poor Materials<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">There are many different roofing materials on the market that all have various pros and cons when it comes to protecting your home. Also, there are many different materials available for your budget no matter how high or low. For example, asphalt shingles are one of the most common roofing materials. They\u2019re low cost and readily available, but absorb heat and only last for about 20 years. It all depends on your particular situation and what you\u2019re willing to spend for your roof.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">The slope of your roof also plays a part in its lifespan. This is what\u2019s going to be taking water, leaves, and other debris off of your roof to relieve some of that pressure.<\/span><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26156\" src=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Untitled-design-254.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Installation Fail<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Often, a roof\u2019s biggest problems can start from the very beginning: installation. Whether you choose the cheapest material or the most expensive, the installation matters. Investing in a solid installation will help your roof last the long haul. Additionally, proper maintenance is very important. Doing routine monthly checks will help you catch small problems before they become gigantic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Aged<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Just like us as human beings, roofs grow old. Sometimes, the only thing that\u2019s affecting your roof is age. There\u2019s nothing that you can do about age, but be aware of your roof\u2019s lifespan so you can replace it when the time comes.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Your roof is what protects your home from mother nature\u2019s wrath. Keeping factors like installation, material, and weather in mind will help you stay aware of the state of your roof and make small changes in the future. <a href=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/curb-appeal\/\">Maintenance<\/a> also plays a big part in your roof\u2019s lifespan. Don\u2019t neglect your roof\u2019s problems as they come up. If you stay aware of these elements and how they affect your roof, it\u2019ll reach its true lifespan. Soon, you\u2019ll stop worrying about your roof and start enjoying your happy home.<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lonnie Hagen has over 30 years experience in residential and commercial roofing in Dallas.
