Types of Roof Damage: What To Look For

There are many common types of damage requiring roofing repairs in Washington, DC, Maryland, Rockville, Silver Spring, Columbia or the surrounding area.

But not ALL damage requires immediate repair or replacement. Do your research before spending your hard-earned money.

Here are a few types of roof damage you may be experiencing:

Ceiling Leaks - Wet areas on your ceiling may be caused by poor ventilation or a leaking roof. This might come from worn shingles or damaged materials. A roofing contractor usually can diagnosis the problem through examining the roof exterior and interior areas.

Flashing Damage - Flashing damage may result from poor installation or corrosion on older flashing. An in-depth inspection can often locate the specific area that requires replacement or repair.

Heat Cracking - This is a common type of shingle damage. If minor, you may be able to avoid repair for a few more years. But don't risk it! Major heat cracking can cause nasty leaks, not to mention headaches. Your roof is considered out of code if there is major heat cracking.

Winter Damage - Snow and Ice can wreak havoc on your roof. Excessive weight can obviously be a danger, especially on flat roofs in Maryland. But the most common problem is ceiling leakage due to ice damming. There isn't too much you can do, because using a snow shovel to clear the snow/ice can cause its own damage, and using rock salt or calcium chloride can void your warranty.

Lacking Ventilation - This can be a SERIOUS problem. Poor or completely missing ventilation can decrease the life of your shingles, underlayment, and roof support. It is also a signifanct factor in energy costs.

Loose or Missing Shingles - This is rather common. Over time, weather conditions or improper installation will tear your roof apart -- one shingle at a time. Loose shingles don't always require replacement or extensive repairs. But if you're experiencing this problem frequently, full roof replacement may be a more economical option than yearly repair.

Old Age - This one is a no-brainer and one of the most common reasons you may need roof repair Washington DC. If your shingle roof is over 10 years old or you're noticing "shingle curling" it's time to get an inspection -- and very likely a replacement.
