One of the most important parts of your home is also one of the least visible – that is of course the roof! The protection that you and all your possessions get from the great British weather comes from the roof, so it is important to ensure that yours is in good condition.
If you do have a problem with your roof, it is better to get a professional like this roofing Cheltenham company Storm Roofing to come and repair it for you as repairing a roof is difficult and dangerous if you are not sure what you are doing!
These are some of the common problems that you may have with your roof…
Water Damage – Damage to membranes on the roof, or missing tiles means that you may experience water coming in through the roof. If you start to see damp patches on ceilings or smell a damp smell it is likely that you have a leaking roof.
Ventilation – Roofs need space for ventilation as the warm air will rise to this part of the roof. If there is not enough ventilation space, it will cause damp and also mould in the roof which can cause big problems if left long term.
Blocked Drains – This is something that a lot of people have trouble with, especially in the autumn as trees shed their leaves. It is important not to let blockages build up in the gutter as this is the drainage system of your roof.
