    Leaky Roof Water Damage Prevention Tips

    The Steamatic team would like to offer our readers some loss prevention and roof maintenance tips to minimize their chances of encountering any problems. 

    • Call in a professional pair of eyes. At least once per year, you should have a professional look at your roof for any potential problems. A roofing or gutter cleaning professional would be able to assess your level of protection from water damage. Detailed inspection reports can be requested, giving you information on the condition of your roof flashing, covering, parapets, and drainage. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, as they say!
    • Invest in roofing repairs. If you have made it through the winter without any leaks thus far, but have noticed missing shingles or loose granules, then you need to act now. If you notice any pooling water on your roof, you need to take action immediately. Now that the weather is warm and the roof conditions safer, these problems can be repaired along with any deteriorated flashing around your chimneys and vents.
    • Consider insulating problem areas. Certain parts of the roof are especially prone to freezing and accumulated snow fall. If you notice pooling water anywhere now that spring is here, these pools will indicate areas in need of insulation.

    Judy and I were very impressed by Donna and Dave and the other staff at Steamatic and with the subcontractors they arranged to do the work. Everything was done professionally to quality standards and with minimum disruption. The repairs are now all complete. Overall, Judy and I appreciate the prompt and trouble-free way in which the claim has been handled and are very satisfied with the resulting repairs.
