Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

An improper DIY roof cleaning could cause leaks by damaging the roofing material. Things like using too much water pressure on the shingles or applying a harsh cleaning solution could cause damage. If you do enough damage, you could harm the ability of the shingles or other roof materials to keep water out of your home.

Identifies potential damage and prolongs roof life by addressing issues early.

Whether you should replace your roof if it is not leaking depends on the specific problem. Just because your roof isn’t leaking doesn’t mean there’s no damage or wood rot. Roof leaks can take a while to spot—and the damage could be extensive by the time you realize your roof is leaking. 

Even if you don’t see a leak, you should have a roofing pro perform an inspection on your roof at least once a year. A pro can spot damage you might miss. They can recommend whether you should consider roof replacement.

Some people prefer to use connectors consisting of galvanized metal to replace the birdsmouth cuts on the rafter board. Common names for these metal pieces include hurricane ties and variable-pitch connectors. Making birdsmouth cuts is more cost-effective than purchasing these connectors for each rafter. However, because making large birdsmouth cuts to accommodate extra-wide exterior walls can weaken the rafter, a connector may be the better option in some cases.

Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof’s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the cost of roof replacement.
