7 Reasons you Need to Undertake Regular Roof Maintenance

While it may seem like a painful job, staying on top of roof maintenance will work better for you in the long run. Here’s why:


1. Insurance companies won’t pay out for damages or leaks if your roof has not been maintained (i.e. hail damage from storm season - insurance companies can claim that it’s your fault for not maintaining the roof).


2. Protection – if your roof is in poor condition, you are more likely to encounter leaks and weather damage. A maintained roof = no worries.


3. Regular roof maintenance will help keep your house looking good overall. Believe it or not people do look up when checking out a house and a shabby roof can damage the appearance of even the best kept homes.


4. It keeps away mould and mildew – roof leaks may not be obvious all the time. If left untreated they can cause mould and mildew leading to potential health issues for you and your family.


5. Adds value to what is your major asset. A well-maintained roof will add value to your home – creating less worry that any issues will turn up on a building and pest inspection report.


6. Saves energy – you can cut down on energy costs especially when using Infracote, an infrared reflective coating incorporating nanotechnology that helps reduce heat penetration and your carbon footprint.


7. Protects from animals – small openings can be used as homes by animals (possums, birds etc) in turn causing damage to your roof both internally and externally.

Choosing a roof colour isn’t just about what looks good. In Ipswich, it can also impact how hot your home gets, how long the coating lasts, and how well your roof handles storm season. So how do you pick the right colour — one that’s both beautiful and practical? Understanding Ipswich’s Climate and Its Impact on Colour Ipswich homes face a mix of harsh elements: Intense sunlight and UV radiation High summer heat - Seasonal storms and heavy rain Airborne dust and debris Dark roofs tend to absorb more heat, which can raise internal temperatures. They also fade faster under UV exposure. Lighter roofs reflect more sunlight, keeping your home cooler and helping the coating last longer. Popular Roof Colours in Ipswich Globalcote colour options for Ipswich homeowners: Surfmist: Bright, clean, and one of the highest for heat reflection Shale Grey: Modern and versatile with good solar performance Evening Haze: Soft and neutral with broad street appeal Dune: An earthy tone that blends well with older and newer homes Windspray: Subtle and stylish, suitable for various house styles All these colours are available in Globalcote’s Infracote (heat reflective) and Elastacote (flexible membrane) roof coating systems. Quick Answer: What Roof Colours Work Best in Ipswich? Lighter, UV-stable colours like Surfmist, Shale Grey, and Dune work best in Ipswich.
