As a homeowner, ensuring the longevity of your roof is essential. A well-maintained roof not only protects your home but also saves you from costly repairs down the line. Here are some expert tips from Dwell Roofing And Exteriors to help you maintain your roof and prevent common issues, ultimately extending its lifespan:

1. Regular Inspections
Perform visual inspections at least twice a year, preferably in the spring and fall. Look for cracked or missing shingles, signs of wear and tear, rust on metal roofs, and any debris accumulation.

2. Clean Gutters and Downspouts
Clogged gutters can lead to water backup, causing damage to both the roof and the interior of your home. Regularly clean gutters and downspouts to ensure proper water drainage.

3. Trim Overhanging Branches
Tree branches hanging over your roof can scratch the surface and cause damage during storms or high winds. Trim back branches to prevent this potential hazard.

4. Remove Debris
Leaves, twigs, and other debris can accumulate on your roof, leading to moisture buildup and potential rot. Use a roof rake or hire professionals to safely remove debris.

5. Check for Leaks
Inspect your attic for signs of water leaks or damage regularly. Catching leaks early can prevent them from becoming major issues that compromise your roof’s integrity.

6. Repair Immediately
If you notice any issues during your inspections, don’t delay repairs. Promptly contact Dwell Roofing to fix damaged or missing shingles, flashing, or any other problems to prevent further damage.

7. Hire Professional Inspections
While DIY inspections are beneficial, hiring a professional roofing company (like Dwell) for an annual or bi-annual inspection is crucial. We have the expertise to detect hidden issues and provide maintenance that homeowners might miss.

Remember, a well-maintained roof not only protects your home but also adds value to your property. By following these maintenance tips and staying proactive in caring for your roof, you can significantly extend its lifespan and ensure your home stays safe and secure for years to come.

UPDATE: I used Dwell again, since I've had such a great experience with Andrew Griggs in the past. This time we did the full roof replacement. My roof was already deteriorating before the wind storm took off a bunch of shingles. I knew this was the time, and it was MY decision to get a full replacement. There was no pressure from Andrew to do a full replacement.WHAT AN UPGRADE. I went from a low quality 3-tab shingle roof to a Class 3 Architectural roof. Check out the before-and-after on the last photo for comparison. I could not be happier with Andrew and Dwell. It's the only company I would recommend to people. He even got the price down to below the estimate he gave me!The day of installation everyone was there on time and they are a well-oiled machine. I felt like I got the best of the best and they finished everything in 1 day and cleaned up incredibly well.This is the company to go with. Don't shop around. Get the best.

Representative arrived on time, took photos of roof with advanced technology and provided reasonably prices service. Recommended.
Due to the recent 76 mph windstorm, a section of my roof was exposed because the tiles were blown away. Jesse, the owner, personally covered the exposed area immediately and, after approval, sent his crew to replace the missing tiles. They did a thorough job. Jesse and his crew are professional, honest, and reasonable. Consequently, Dwell Roofing and Exteriors will be my first choice for future projects.
