The roof is your building’s first line of defense against the elements. Prepare it for the upcoming season with a professional inspection and completion of any needed repairs before winter weather extremes take hold.

There is a lot at stake on the roof this time of year. Debris in gutters and downspouts can block drains. Water can accumulate on the roof and migrate into any small openings; then freeze and widen them.

According to Roofing Contractor magazine, proper inspection and maintenance prolongs the life of the roof, and in many instances, allows for repair instead of replacement when a problem is identified. Prioritizing quality roof inspections will provide peace of mind when rough weather arrives.

Winter roof emergencies can occur in spite of the best preparations. Know that Tri-State/Service Group has winter-experienced, safe and professional roofing technicians ready to help.
