Have you ever had a leak in your roof before? If you have, you'll understand already how fast a small leak can grow to cause large amounts of damage - but did you know that they're also easy to prevent if you get the proper maintenance?
Apex Restoration & Roofing, the go-to option for roof repair and installation in Colorado, has been trying hard to remind homeowners of the importance of inspecting their metal roofs for damage, particularly after major storms. You can read their full guide at https://apexroofingusa.com/storm-damage - but the TL;DR is simple.
You might be thinking, metal roofs are known for their durability, why should I need repairs? Hail can't punch a hole in metal! Right?
Unfortunately, you would be surprised at how much damage the weather can do to your roof, even if it's solid metal. They can still be susceptible to storm damage, especially from hail, strong winds, and flying debris... obviously, a metal roof will take a lot less damage than, say, asphalt shingles, but it's not invincible.
Like most things in life though, if you do the maintenance early, it's easy. A few quick and affordable repairs today could save you from repairing a massive hole and all the water it lets in after the next major storm.
Metal roofing has become a popular choice in Colorado due to its high durability, energy efficiency, and long lifespan, however, while it is more durable than traditional asphalt shingles, it does still require some repairs to maximize its effective lifespan. Just getting it installed is most of the battle, and just a bit of regular maintenance will get you the rest of the way.
Apex Restoration & Roofing’s report explains everything you need to know to keep metal roofing maintained through storms, extreme weather, and decades of wear and tear, or you can just schedule regular visits from one of their specialists.
