Detail-Oriented Roof Maintenance
Having maintenance performed on the roof of your home or business on a regular basis is crucial for extending its lifespan. This will save you money in the long run, because you’ll delay the need for expensive roof replacement. You might wonder what exactly maintaining a roof involves. Put simply, roof maintenance involves tasks like washing and cleaning out the crevices of your roof components, while also repairing damage to shingles and other components.

Learn About Our Maintenance Process
Inspecting the Shingles
During roof maintenance, On Time Roofing New York will closely inspect your roof for the following:
- Missing shingles
- Curling shingles
- Cracked shingles
- Damaged flashing
- Missing granules
Looking for Leaks Inside
Properly conducted roof maintenance takes place on the interior — specifically, the attic or ceiling — as well as on the exterior of your home or business. The common warning signs of a leak include:
- Musty odors in certain rooms
- Water stains on the ceiling(s)
- Spots on the exterior walls
- Bulging paint on the interior walls
Washing & Cleaning Components
Why would you need to wash your roof? Dirt is not the issue — algae is. Algae can cause ugly black stains that detract from curb appeal. This service also includes cleaning out the gutters. Clogged gutters allow water to seep under the structure of your roof and cause water damage to your home.
Trimming Overhanging Branches
If branches hanging over your roof fall, they can damage the material. At the very least, fallen leaves from branches will pile on top of the shingles and cause them to deteriorate faster. On Time Roofing New York will trim any branches that hang over the roof to prevent these scenarios from occurring.
Patching the Chimney
One of our contractors will inspect your chimney for cracks or missing mortar as part of our roof maintenance work. Structural damage to the chimney can cause bricks to loosen and fall out, which can damage your roof or even make your chimney collapse. On Time Roofing New York will patch cracks in the mortar.
Leave Maintenance to Our Professionals
You should never attempt to climb on your roof and perform roof maintenance yourself. The height of the roof poses a serious falling hazard without the right safety equipment. Furthermore, if the work is not done correctly, it will not yield the benefits you want. Leave it to the professionals at On Time Roofing New York.
