Spring Is Here!

Spring is here! Let that soak in for a minute, the birds are chirping, flowers are blooming and the trees are releasing massive amounts of pollen. This magical time of year is known for woodland creatures frolicking in meadows of wildflowers while the sun sparkles off of fish jumping in the lake. Ok, maybe not, but spring is a time for rebuilding and renewal; the ideal time to get up on that roof and inspect the flashings.

Spring Inspection

Assuming that you were able to inspect your roof, what did you notice about it? Were the flashings in decent shape? How about the roof itself? Spring is the time to repair any and all damage that could have been done during the winter. Hopefully you didn't have any critters move in! The urgency is real. Freeze and thaw cycles that occur in winter can loosen already compromised pipe boots and allow leaks to form in your roof.

Spring Weather

As we all know, no matter which part of this great country that you hail from, spring weather is unpredictable. We can see hail, lightning, tornadoes, high winds and all sorts of other crazy weather. Your flashings had better be in good repair or your roof will pay the price. In addition to the flashings, the sealant around things like mast connections and roof vents should be inspected for integrity. Embrace the longer days of spring and summer by sealing up that roof; the peace of mind against leaks is priceless. Call Flashings Direct today for all of your flashing needs.
