Top 10 Ways to Extend the Life of Your Roof

The roof is one of the most important features of our homes. It acts as a barrier against ever-changing weather conditions such as snow, hail, and rainfall. It also protects us from the heat especially during summer and keeps the home cool during winter. A good roof will increase your home value when you plan on reselling your space. Roof waterproofing is one of the ways to keep your roof top-notch during all seasons. Also, it will keep the roof safe from other environmental menaces such as mildew, mold, and algae that threaten our health. In the long run, you will end up saving on costs as you will forego regular maintenance expenses.

1. Identify damages early 

As homeowners, we tend to avoid getting on the roof for a proper inspection. But this is essential because you can easily identify problems at the onset when they are not a major concern. One of the most common problems is leakage due to cracks. It can cause dampness, growth of algae and mould, and musty smells. 

Such problems can be resolved by opting for free consultation servicesfrom 20MCC which offers top roof waterproofing servicesto enhance the lifespan of your roof. Also, the repairs will reduce the costs of regular maintenance. 

2. Hire a professional

Although you can check for damages by yourself, it is a good idea to hire a professional. They can identify some damages that you can miss. Hire a reliable roof waterproofing company like 20MCC that identifies the problems and provides apt waterproofing solutions. This will help avoid the issues from turning into bigger problems.

3. Get rid of the mildew, algae, and mould

Roof mould and algae will ruin the aesthetics of your roof. They are common in warm and humid areas. Choosing to replace your roof shingles can be expensive, especially if they tend to recur when you clean them. 

Instead of washing your roof with bleach and water, you can choose waterproofing chemicals that act as enduring resistance. A product like Tigersil best suits these requirements. The product is designed to resolve all your mould and algae-related issues and more for a long time.

4. Seal the cracks

Cracks become common when the roof is damaged. Drastic weather changes especially when the heavy rainfall events begin to cause more harm. The moisture continues to add stress which can ruin your home's integrity. 

Cracksil is a strong roof waterproofing adhesion that will seal the cracks. To make the solution more effective, substitute water with Nanosil

5. Heat insulation

Moisture is a common cause of roof damage. However, heat too can ruin your roof shingles. In addition to moisture, they create the perfect environment for the growth of moulds. 

20MCC’s thermal insulation services create the perfect environment to dwell in. We apply one of our popular products Tigerkool on the roof sheets for optimum insulation. 

6. Have a qualified roofer during construction

To avoid any repairs and costs in the future, invest in a qualified roofer during the initial stages of construction. You can look for a reliable roof waterproofing company like 20MCC that shows great commitment towards its work. Our company offers comprehensive waterproofing servicesnot only for your roof but also for other parts of your building. 

7. Clean the gutters

Leaves and debris tend to build on the rainwater system. This will disrupt the flow of water especially when it rains. The stagnant water ruins your gutter systems and causes leaks. Thus, clear the gutters especially during autumn to avoid these mishaps.

8. Trim overlying branches 

You can protect your roof by trimming overlying branches that tend to discharge debris directly on the roof. Cutting them will also reduce the cleaning time. 

9. Ventilation

During summer, poorly ventilated roofs tend to overheat, which leads to heat damage on the shingles and the tiles. In winter, ice shelves form on the edges of the roof and prevent the snow from melting - damaging the inside of the roof. Airflow in the attic will keep the weather conditions at bay and protect your roof. 

10. Invest in roof waterproofing products

Indeed, roof waterproofing takes much less time than having to install a new roof. Waterproofing products from 20MCC will help maintain your roof’s efficiency and save on costs for repairs.
