Your roof is your home's first line of defense against the elements. It is designed to protect your home from moisture and other adverse weather conditions. Your roof must be watertight at all times or else you will experience expensive water damage and roof leaks. That means taking care of your roof and maintaining it to ensure that it remains it top condition. Part of that maintenance is repairing small roof leaks and broken or missing shingles. Some roof repairs are best left to professional roofing contractors Milton. For example, if there are multiple leaks in the roof or the leak is wicking across framing members or along walls making it hard to find the source of the leak, you should contact a professional. Also, if there is significant damage to the roof or a repair you have made isn't holding, you should also entrust the job to a roofing contractor. However, small problems like a missing shingle or a small leak can be fixed with a little do-it-yourself attitude. If a storm has damaged a shingle on your roof, you can create a quick fix with a tube of roofing cement and a piece of aluminum flashing. Cut the flashing slightly narrower than the ripped tab. It should extend under the tabs on either side. Carefully loosen the damaged tab and the tabs to the right and left of the damaged tab. Apply a few quick beads of roofing cement beneath the damaged shingle and slip the flashing underneath. Apply more roofing cement on top of the flashing. Now press the tab down and you've fixed the problem. Done Right Roofing Ltd. is a roofing contractors Milton provides residential and commercial quality roofing services and products.
