Bristol, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/06/2021 -- C.R. Thompson Roofing is currently scheduling appointments for customers interested in roof replacement services in Bucks County, PA. While it's possible to minimize the risks associated with roof damage, storms, and other conditions can make roof replacement necessary for many homeowners. In some cases, unchecked roof damage can lead to an emergency, requiring immediate replacement to make the house safe. For this reason, homeowners must have the debris removed from their roofs, address any water damage, and keep an ear out for scurrying in their walls or ceilings.
It's not uncommon to see debris from surrounding trees on rooftops following a storm, but this debris presents a significant danger to the roof itself. Whether it's a big branch or an accumulation of leaves and twigs, this debris adds weight to the roof that it's not designed to hold for extended periods, which can lead to premature wear on the roof's supporting structure. Further, if a tree branch has landed on the roof, then there's a chance it will shift, causing additional damage to the roof.
In addition to looking out for debris, homeowners should seek to address any water damage in their homes as quickly as possible. While it may not always be the roof, it's crucial to identify the source and fix the issue because water damage can cause rot in a roof's support structure, making a full replacement more likely.
Finally, homeowners who have noticed the sound of scurrying in the walls of their homes should seek out a roof inspection immediately. These sounds indicate that animals have found a way inside the house, and these entry points often are found on the roof. If these holes in a roof's protective layer aren't patched, then it's likely that water will seep in and cause additional damage to the structure.
