Gutters should be your first stop this Spring! Leaves and debris that build up over the Winter months don’t just muck up your gutters --- when your drainage system is clogged, it makes your shingles, siding, soffits, etc., vulnerable to damage and rot. Be sure to practice safe cleaning practices, with a sturdy ladder and a helping hand. And don’t forget to get the downspout, too!... Looking for a professional hand to help you clean up your Spring cleaning checklist? Just call Kerr’s! #KerrsRoofing #Roofers #roofing #roof #construction #roofer #roofingcontractor #roofingcompany #roofrepair #YGK

Ice may look pretty, but when it thaws it can leave behind damaged roof shingles that aren’t so easy on the eyes. You can help reduce ice build-up (and the subsequent damage) by applying ice-melting solutions which are available at your local hardware store. They contain chemicals such as ammonium sulfate, calcium magnesium acetate, etc. that can effectively melt ice. It’s important to distribute them evenly, and make sure they won’t have any negative interactions with your o...verall roof system. Of course, the best way to avoid ice dam damage is to have your roof inspected and maintained by a professional.

Long after the snow and ice have melted, the moisture trapped in a damaged roof continues to cultivate molds and fungi. Fortunately, you can fight water with water! Well, WARM water, that is Load a spray bottle with warm water and spray it on ice dams and formations until they melt. Don’t use boiling water, and don’t dump it on all at once --- and be careful not to spill any on yourself to avoid accidents.... Of course, the best way to avoid ice dam damage is to have your roof inspected and maintained by a professional.

Ice build up on your roof and gutters can cause melting water to leak and stain your home. Ice picks are designed to break up blocks of ice. When used with patience and caution they can open up your drainage system, preventing overflows. But when used incorrectly, they can hurt you and your roof! Of course, the best way to avoid ice dam damage is to have your roof inspected and maintained by a professional.

Ice build-up on your roof causes costly cracks and fissures that only get worse over time. One of the reasons this can happen is because of poor air flow in your attic. So one practical solution is to set up fans that help ensure air is directed to the locations where leaks are likely. Of course, the best way to avoid ice dam damage is to have your roof inspected and maintained by a professional.

Poorly installed or designed roofing systems can cause ice dams that damage your roof, requiring costly repairs. One way to remove ice buildup is to use a snow rake in downward motions. For your safety, always stand on the ground (not a ladder) and make sure you have good traction. For your roof’s safety, hire an expert --- the rake can just as easily damage your roof if you’re not careful!

Ice can form little dams in your gutters and on your roof that can quickly lead to leaks. Ice dams also increase the weight on your roof, and between the moisture and extra burden, can even cause a collapse.

The blustery cold of winter tends to lock in moisture and air. But as the warmer weather returns, that moisture gets trapped between the layers of your roof instead! This causes roof blisters, particularly if your roof is flat or has a low slope. They distort and destroy your roofing system.

Just call Kerr’s.... #KerrsRoofing #Roofers #roofing #roof #construction #roofer #roofingcontractor #roofingcompany #roofrepair #YGK

Snow seems light and gentle in small doses, but even just a few inches of buildup can cause serious stress to your roof! It’s surprisingly heavy, and can build up fast --- especially on flat roofs!

Just call Kerr’s.... #KerrsRoofing #Roofers #roofing #roof #construction #roofer #roofingcontractor #roofingcompany #roofrepair #YGK

Melted snow and rain water infiltrate cracks in your roof system. But as the temperature drops below freezing, and it turns into ice, it expands. This causes cracks that let in even more water in, and the cycle continues! Whether you’re ready to winterize your roof in advance, or you need some seasonal repairs, we’ve got you covered! Just call Kerr’s.... #KerrsRoofing #Roofers #roofing #roof #construction #roofer #roofingcontractor #roofingcompany #roofrepair #YGK

Many people recognize the risk to your roof that winter brings. But many people who try to remove ice and snow on their own end up puncturing shingles or waterproofing. The damage comes most often when people scrape too hard to remove ice buildup. Whether you’re ready to winterize your roof in advance, or you need some seasonal repairs, we’ve got you covered!

There’s no one answer to this question, unfortunately. The costs of a new roof installation can vary significantly due to a variety of factors, including the timeline of the project, the materials being used, the architectural considerations, market costs, and more. An average project may cost about $6,500. But you don’t want a cookie-cutter answer, when a professional inspector can quote you a precise cost based on your needs and the needs of your home. That’s why we recomme...nd looking at every project as its own, and treating every customer's needs as unique. If you want to learn more about what a roofing reno would look like for your home, talk to one of our experts today.

Deciding to redo your entire roof can be a big deal, so you want to know your options. When it comes to a complete overhaul, there are 2 approaches to choose from: to replace or to re-cover. Replace Replacing your roof starts with tearing off the old roofing system and starting from scratch. It is a more intensive process, but provides a clean slate for your roofing infrastructure.... Re-Cover Re-covering your roof means installing new materials over your existing roofing system. Because there is no teardown, the process is faster and more cost-friendly. However, building code requirements often set strict limits about how many re-covers are permitted on any given home. To find out what YOUR best options are, talk to one of our experts today!
