In this blog we run through 7 signs you need a roof restoration.
Your home is your biggest asset, and we understand just how expensive they are to maintain.
But if you don’t look after your roof, you’re only going to be spending more time and money in the long run on issues which could have been prevented.
Here are 7 reasons why you should pick up the phone and call JMZ Roof Restorations and make a roof restoration a priority.
1. Age
How old is your home and roof? If your roof is older than 15-20 years+ and has never been repaired or restored, it’s time to prioritise a restoration.
Why? Well coatings typically only have a lifespan of 10-15 years.
For older tiled roofs the pointing was made from sand and cement which breaks down with movement over time. Roofing products today are much more advanced and flex with any movement.
2. Roof is sagging
Do parts of your roof look lower than they should?
This is a red flag that there could be structural problems with your roof and you need a professional to assess it and likely restore it promptly.
3. Visible watermarks and leaks
If you can see watermarks inside on the ceiling, it means you’ve got a leak in your roof somewhere.
Not only can this cause structural issues for your home, but it can also lead to health problems like mould.
4. Light coming into roof
Can you see light trailing into your roof cavity? This could be because there are holes in your roof.
Simple repairs may suffice, but it’s best to consult with your restoration specialist to be sure.
5. Paint deteriorating
Is your paint peeling off and looking a bit worse for wear?
As we said earlier, coatings for roofs are generally expected to last between 10-15 years. If it’s been that long since you’ve had repairs, it is likely going to be more beneficial to get a full restoration rather than just repainting the surface.
6. Rusty build up on metal roof
Are there rusty screws or sheeting visible on your roof? This is a sign that your roof coating is oxidising and needs attention.
7. Cracked or chipped tiles
If your tiled and terracotta roof has chipped or cracked tiles you’ll need to get them fixed to avoid water from seeping into the roof cavity.
A professional from JMZ Roof Restoration will be able to assess the damage and advise if a full restoration is needed.
