Inspect the inside of your home
We don’t need to tell you how wet the fall and winter months can get in the Lower Mainland. Before the rainy season is in full swing, inspect your home for any water damage now (things are only going to get worse). If you’ve noticed any water spots or leaks on your ceiling or in the attic, it’s a pretty good sign you have some damaged or missing shingles. Clean your gutters
Get a head start on all those falling leaves this season by cleaning out the gutters. If they’re clogged up, leaves and debris buildup can stop rain water from flowing properly, resulting in water damage to your siding, foundation, and landscaping. To make sure your gutter system is running smoothly, regularly clean them out during the fall and winter seasons too.Check for missing and damaged shingles
Pick a nice sunny day and walk around the exterior of your home, looking for any loose, broken, or missing shingles. If you see any, you’ll want to get those repaired or replaced as soon as possible. Oh, and it’s probably not a good idea to go climbing out on the roof yourself for a closer look—leave that to professional Langley roofers. After all, it would be a lot harder to repair and replace you.-
Examine the cut-outs in your roof
The beginning of fall is the perfect time of year to check for gaps in the seals around skylights, chimneys, and ventilation systems in your roof. With the heavy downpours of rain on the way, you’ll want to make sure that all roof openings are shipshape and watertight this season.Get a professional roofing inspection
As you’ll undoubtedly want to take advantage of the last handful of sunny summer days, inspecting your roof is probably the last thing on your mind. So why not have professional Langley roofers look things over for you instead? They have the experience and know-how to pinpoint roofing issues, and repair them before they turn into much larger—and more expensive—problems.
