You just got a new roof and you think your done for ever with worrying about your roof. This is a very common myth in the roofing industry. In today’s post, Matlock Roofing will dispel many common myths about your roof and a maintenance plan. Roof Maintenance & Why You Need It: My Roof is New Most people think once they get a new roof that is it pretty much forever. Hey, I bought a lifetime roof. I have heard that one many times. True enough many people buy what is called a lifetime roof but if you read the fine print it really says limited lifetime. Limited lifetime is a way roofing material manufacturers get away with giving you a lesser warranty than lifetime. Even though the language of the warranty does have time limits, the big manufacturers like the CertainTeed Corporation have great roof warranties. So, even though your roof is new, a good roof maintenance plan is still a smart idea. I Do Not Need Preventive Maintenance Most people think because they have a new roof, they will never have any roofing related problems. That might be true at first, but over time it won’t be. Many homeowners have trees hanging over their roofs. Even with a new roof, leaves piled up in your roof’s valley or piled between your shingle roof and your patio cover can and will make your roof leak. A good roof maintenance plan will keep your roof clear of debris every year. My Roof Warranty Covers Everything About My Roof A good warranty will cover many things about your roof but only related to workmanship from your roofing company, and manufacturers defect from the roofing material manufacturer. This leaves many things open for the responsibility of the homeowner. Debris build up could not only pose a roof leak issue, it can stain your shingles. Most good shingles have algae resistance built into the shingles but leaves and other debris sitting on the shingles will void this AR warranty. This is when a good maintenance plan will keep your roofing shingles clean and looking good.
