Lorton, VA Roofers

Roof Repair, Roof Replacement, Roof Ventilation

Lorton, VA is named for a small village surrounded by lakes in Cumbria, England. It is the home of several famous historical landmarks, including the Pohick Church with George Washington’s box. The natural environment is quite spectacular but it can make it more challenging for a home owner to keep up with maintenance and repairs. The first line of defense between your house and the elements is the roof, and this is the part of the house that takes the heaviest impact.
 
Believe it or not, ignoring your gutters can eventually lead to so much damage you will need a new roof. Your shingles are designed to direct rain and melt water down the slope of your roof into the gutters. The gutters direct the water to the downspouts where it is carried safely away from the house.
 
Blocked gutters or downspouts give the storm water no place to go other than back up against the edge of the roof. It does not take long for sitting water to erode whatever it contacts. The edges of your roof simply rot if this is allowed to continue. If you live near a wooded area you must have your gutters cleaned once or twice a year.
 
There are several other reasons you may be having trouble with your roof. A well-constructed roof can last for 10 or 15 years as long as roof repairs are done in a timely fashion. Exposure to weather extremes wears out and corrodes the roofing materials – this cannot be avoided. Eventually roof replacement will be your only recourse, but you can prevent a lot of serious water damage to your home by taking care of potential leaks before they happen.
 
If you discover areas of excessive dampness anywhere inside your house call us for a free roof inspection. Water leaking through the roof follows any path it can find and there is no saying where it will end up. A water problem in the basement can originate with the roof. There is no need for a new roof when the issues can be resolved with minor roof repairs. Have you roof inspected even when you don’t suspect a problem.
