Check Roof for Damages.

The roof is your first line of defense against the elements, so it’s essential to keep it in top shape. Look for signs of damage such as loose, cracked, or missing shingles, which can allow water to penetrate and cause leaks. Any areas where shingles appear discolored or curled could indicate water damage or exposure to intense heat, weakening their effectiveness.

You should also inspect for any sagging spots, which might indicate structural issues that could worsen under the weight of snow or heavy rain. While you’re up there, check the flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights for any signs of wear. Damaged flashing is a common source of leaks and should be promptly repaired to avoid water infiltration.

If climbing onto the roof is not feasible or safe, consider hiring a roofing professional for a thorough inspection. They can identify issues that may not be immediately visible from the ground and provide recommendations for repairs or maintenance. This proactive step will help ensure your roof can withstand fall storms and winter snow.
