This is the time of year when many homeowners are getting their gutters and roofs inspected. Let’s cover some basic maintenance tasks for May that can help you prepare your home for the coming summer months.
Roofing is one of the most important things to inspect before the weather gets warmer. Roofs will be exposed to more heat as temperatures rise, so we recommend checking them twice a year just to make sure they’re in good shape!
Roofs should have no visible signs of water damage or leaks. If you see any, Mackie One can do a thorough inspection and repair the issues with a proper sealant if necessary.
The flashing around chimneys and other openings in your home’s exterior is also important to check for potential problems during this time period. Problems can occur while the metal gets brittle and cracks, or if the flashing has come loose.
Inspect gutters for clogs, damage to screens and downspouts, rusting brackets, leaking joints in pipes, and other problems that can cause water leaks inside your home.
While most people can do these, our experienced professionals will know where to look and what solutions to apply for the most thorough inspection.
