Understanding the Essentials of Professional Roof Inspections | Elm Bay Roof Rejuvenate ltd, Setting the Standards
Roof inspectors conduct thorough examinations to identify leaks, signs of wear and tear, wind damage, granular loss, curling, and any issues stemming from previous installations or repairs, such as solar panel installations. These inspections typically focus on four key aspects: structure, materials, interiors, and workmanship.
Material inspections play a crucial role, particularly concerning the application of Roof Rejuvenate. This rejuvenator effectively replenishes the asphalt shingles, enhancing their resilience to expansion and contraction, thus mitigating the risk of cracking. Much like roads or parking lots, asphalt shingles can deteriorate when the oils within dry out, resulting in cracks and granular loss. Roof Rejuvenate counteracts this process, ensuring the shingles remain intact and functional.
Failure to maintain the roof shingles can lead to the depletion of essential oils, rendering them brittle and unsuitable for inspection. Conversely, rejuvenated shingles exhibit flexibility, secure granular adhesion, and resistance to damage, satisfying inspection criteria which ultimately will lead to costly roof replacement.
Typically, asphalt roofs begin to show signs of aging within five to ten years, influenced by environmental factors. As the oils within the shingles dry out, the granular coating begins to wash away, causing them to lose their protective properties. Roof Rejuvenate, a bio-based product, has demonstrated an 86% improvement in granular adhesion compared to untreated shingles.
By enhancing flexibility, maintaining granular integrity, waterproofing surfaces, inhibiting moss growth, and improving fire resistance, Roof Rejuvenate extends the lifespan of shingles, ensuring they remain intact on your roof for longer periods.
