Shingles and how to look
after them
Munich
Reinsurance America, a major reinsurance corporation (that is, an insurance
company that insures other insurance companies) found in a 2014 survey that 63
percent of Americans had either fortified their homes against severe storms or
planened to do so in the future. This is a wise precaution in the Charlotte and
Concord, NC area.
You
should focus on keeping your roof in good repair, especially if you have a
shingle roof. According to Angie’s List, roof maintenance becomes more
important when your house is in its second decade of use. This means checking
your shingles for blistering, buckling or curling. When you check your roof
gutters, look for shingle granules, a sign of wear and tear. Shingles are small
and relatively easy to replace, but they are more easily damaged or knocked
loose than other forms of roofing, resulting in holes that need to be fixed as
soon as possible. Your local residential roofer can give you tips on how to
prepare your roof for bad weather.
