When thinking of ways to make a home more attractive, homeowners often think of a new paint job, colorful landscaping, or installing a paver driveway. But a roof is usually considered more of a functional feature of the home, not an aesthetic one. Still, there is no denying that an ugly roof can deter from the overall look of your home – but how much does it really affect your curb appeal?
You may be surprised to learn that as much as 40% of the visible exterior of your home is actually comprised of the roof. Therefore, it may be more important than you think.
A dirty roof, or a roof in disrepair, is a prevalent red flag for homebuyers. Even if the roof is structurally sound, the appearance alone may cause people to reject the home based on curb appeal alone. Experts recommend that you not only thoroughly clean your roof before trying to sell the home, but also to perform a roof inspection and do any necessary repairs.
As noted, home owner’s associations are prolific in the Venice area. If you have a covenant requirement to keep your roof clean, hire a local roofing contractor. You can schedule annual inspections, fix minor problems as they arise, and clean the roof all at the same time. This annual maintenance will go a long way to not only improving your home’s curb appeal, but to ensuring the longevity of your roof over the long-term.
