Water can damage your home in a variety of ways. It can pass through gaps in your roofing system and cause leaks or enter through damaged siding. It can even come from overflowing, clogged gutters. As one of the top roofing companies in our local area, Exterior Building Solutions recommends keeping all parts of your home in good condition if you want to avoid water damage.

Siding Damage

Cracks in your siding can allow water to enter the area beneath it and cause damage. This is a problem because water can cause the structure there to deteriorate if the damaged siding is neglected. This often leads to costly repairs, even if the siding itself looks fine. You can prevent this by keeping track of your siding’s current condition and calling for repairs if you spot something wrong.

Roof Leaks

Even the smallest gap in your roofing system can cause a roof leak. Rain can travel quite a distance when entering through a crack in your shingles. The water can cause leaks and damage many parts of your roof’s structure. We recommend calling us for emergency roof repair the moment you spot a problem and scheduling a regular roof maintenance program. This program can counteract the effects of wear and tear, reducing the risk of roof leaks in the future.

Clogged Gutters

Overflowing gutters can cause water damage to your landscaping, foundation, roof and siding. You need to check your gutters regularly and make sure there are no gutter clogs because this system is necessary to protect your home from rain and snowmelt. Schedule regular gutter cleaning and maintenance, and replace your gutter system once it has reached the end of its life span.
