Any damage to your roof must be repaired quickly because it is part of your first line of defense against the weather. Too often, however, homeowners make the mistake of taking a reactive approach to roof maintenance: they only call their contractor if they find something wrong with their roof. By the time an initially small issue is addressed, it will have worsened. This is why maintenance programs from professional roofing companies are needed.

A Walkthrough of a Typical Roof Maintenance Service Call

Roof maintenance programs are proactive: they periodically inspect the roof so they can address any issues before they get out of hand. And to make sure you get the most out of the program, Exterior Building Solutions walks you through what to expect when you sign up.

Repair Work Request

Contractors are usually the ones that take the initiative of setting up the schedule for roof maintenance services and inspection, but should you encounter any issue, you can also give them a call. If you suspect your roof might be damaged after some extreme weather event like a storm, you can call your contractor to schedule an inspection. And just so the contractor can be better prepared, it wouldn’t hurt to detail the extent of the potential issue.

On-Site Work

The contractor will then visit the site to do the repair work per your request and requirements. Contractors like Exterior Building Solutions will first conduct a thorough inspection of your roof. Expect a report of the findings after the inspection is done. With your permission, the contractor will then conduct the necessary repair work.

Maintenance Log

The kind of work done on your roof will be then logged in a database for recording purposes as well as for any follow-up repair work.


If you still haven’t signed up to a roof maintenance program, you might want to start looking for one. After all, you never know when you might need emergency leaking roof repair.
