At Trojan Roofing, we understand that spring can bring unique challenges to roof maintenance. Here’s a guide to the most common spring roofing problems and effective strategies to address them, ensuring your roof remains in optimal condition.

Debris Accumulation

Spring often brings increased debris like leaves and twigs, which can accumulate on your roof and in your gutters. Regular cleaning to remove debris is essential to prevent water pooling and potential damage.

Moisture and Mold Issues

The combination of rain and warmer temperatures can create ideal conditions for mold and mildew growth. It’s crucial to ensure that your roof has proper ventilation to mitigate these issues.

Shingle Damage

Winter storms may have loosened or damaged shingles. Inspect your roof in spring to replace missing, cracked, or curled shingles to prevent water from seeping through and causing interior damage.

Flashing Leaks

Flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights can become loose over time. Spring is the perfect time to check these areas and reseal or replace the flashing as needed to maintain a watertight seal.

Gutter Clogs

Gutters play a vital role in roof health by directing water away from your foundation. Ensure your gutters are free of clogs to prevent overflow and subsequent water damage to your roof and siding.
