Bristol, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/06/2021 -- Philly Roofing is currently scheduling customers interested in roofing services in Philadelphia and the surrounding area throughout the fall. Emergency roof repairs can be challenging to plan for unless homeowners understand what signs to look out for when inspecting their roofs after a storm. Typically, if a roof has loose or missing nails, damaged flashing, or clogged gutters, it's crucial that homeowners seek out roof repairs before further damage can occur.
Nails are a small part of a roof's structure, but they have a massive job to do, making them a perfect indicator of whether a roof needs repair. They secure shingles and other roofing material to the roof's supporting structure, which helps keep the weather from causing rot and further damage in the roof bed and the house it protects. After a storm, it's not uncommon for nails to become loose or go missing, which makes the roofing material less secure against the weather and creates a little hole through which water can seep.
In addition to looking for loose nails, it's essential to identify where flashing around chimneys, skylights, and other roof features may have been damaged. Like the role nails play, flashing helps keep the weather from destroying a home's features, which means that any damage creates a risk that water will seep into the space and cause further destruction if left unchecked.
Finally, homeowners must address clogged gutters before there's a chance for them to cause damage to the home. Removing leaves from a gutter can often be done at the homeowner's discretion, but if the gutter becomes clogged by damp leaves during a storm, there's a chance that additional damage has occurred, which needs to be fixed to avoid further harm to the roof. In cases like these, it's always ideal to have someone come out to inspect the roof.
