THE IMPORTANCE OF A VENTILATED ROOF

‍

If you want your roof to last as long as possible, it’s worth investing in proper ventilation. A small investment of a few hundred dollars could well save you thousands in the future.

Why is ventilation important? In short, without proper ventilation, the heat and humidity generated by your home will simply accumulate in your attic, leading to structural damage to your roof in the long run. Poor ventilation can also contribute to ice damming during winter, which brings its own share of problems.

Get in touch with Cassell Roofing today to have your roof ventilation checked. We’ll be able to provide proper remedies to any issues we may discover at affordable prices.

SIGNS YOUR ROOF IS NOT PROPERLY VENTILATED

‍

There are a few warning signs you can look out for which might mean you need better ventilation for your roof. The first sign is condensation forming inside your roof.

As we all learn in physics class, heat rises if it has nowhere to go. The heat will be trapped in your attic and will form a layer of condensation which can seep back into your ceiling. This can actually develop to the point where you start to think your roof is leaking.

A second sign you can look out for is if your air conditioning becomes less effective at cooling the upper floor of your home. This is again due to trapped hot air that does not have anywhere to escape from.

The damage that stems from poor ventilation can be devastating to your home and your wallet. Avoid extensive repairs by getting the experts at Cassell Roofing to check your roof today!
