The Badger Company

People love being outdoors during the spring – the crisp air, the growing foliage and overall pleasant weather. No wonder people like catching up on their exterior home maintenance tasks in springtime as well. If you’re putting together your spring checklist, you may have wondered if it’s also a good time to have your roof inspected. Well, aside from the reasons we just mentioned above, here are a few more reasons why springtime is the best time for a roof inspection.

Spring Weather

While there really is no bad time to have your roof inspected, spring is a particularly good time to have it done. The sun can dry everything out, making it easier and safer to conduct a thorough inspection on all roofing components. The mild weather conditions are also kinder to the workers who have to labor on your roof.

Damage is a lot easier to spot when the sun is shining. Leaks, cracks, loose or missing shingles, and other common wear and tear issues can be addressed early before they turn into major problems. Your local roofer can also clear away any accumulated leaves and debris as part of the service.

Off-Season for Most Roofers

It is also worth mentioning that summer can get extremely busy for your local roofing company or any exterior home improvement company in general. If you opt to have roofing work done during the summer months like everybody else, you could be looking at a long wait time.

Preparation for Spring Rains

Lastly, thunderstorms are more likely to occur in spring. Having your roof checked by a pro at the beginning of the season can go a long way towards ensuring that yours is watertight before the rain falls.
