MUST-KNOW ROOF MAINTENANCE TIPS
INSPECT YOUR ROOF REGULARLY
It's essential to inspect your roof at least twice a year, ideally in the fall and spring. Check for any missing or broken shingles, holes, cracks, or other damage. Conducting regular inspections helps you detect any issues early on, so you can address them before they become more significant problems.
CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS
Cleaning your gutters is an important part of roof maintenance. Clogged gutters can cause water to overflow, leading to damage to the roof's edge, fascia, or foundation. Remove any leaves, dirt or debris on your gutters regularly to prevent blockages and ensure proper drainage.
TRIM TREES AROUND YOUR HOME
Overhanging trees can damage your roof by dragging along the shingles, causing scratches that can become major leaks over time. Trim trees near your Ottawa home, especially if they are large and could cause significant damage if fallen.

If you detect a leak, fix it immediately. Delaying repairs can lead to more severe damage, resulting in more significant costs. Call our local Ottawa roofing company for roof repairs today.
