When your home was originally constructed, the roof deck and associated structures – such as eaves and rafters – were built to provide needed roof support. However, if you are looking at making changes to your older roof, you may want to first find out if your roof has the support it needs underneath to safely and effectively hold up your roof.
The protection of your home and family depend on the integrity of your roof – therefore the question is an important one. How is your roof support?
We often discuss that despite its importance, the roof tends to be a bit “out of sight, out of mind.” Even more so is what is underneath your roofing materials – the roof deck and framing which holds the roof in place and keeps it structurally sound.
Here are just a few situations where the roof support will become critical for your home.
The easiest way to determine the overall health of your roof is to schedule a roof inspection. A licensed roofing contractor will be able to pinpoint issues, fix minor problems, and alert you as to any long-term problems which may arise. Any time you are looking to do any major construction on your roof – be it new materials or solar panels – be sure to check out the integrity of your roof support. Fall is a great time to inspect a roof (find out why here!). Call Kingdom Roofing for a thorough evaluation of your roof’s health and expected longevity.
