June brings the summer, with its long and increasingly hot days around the solstice. If you want to make sure your roof is resilient, put these things on your maintenance list for early summer.

- Cleaning the roof

- Checking the condition of roof accessories
Damaged or missing accessories can cause water leaks, as well as degradation and corrosion. Damaged shingles, joints or fixtures should be replaced immediately by storm damage roof replacement Orlando specialists.
- The paint layer, in the case of painted roofs
If you notice paint corrosion at the roof edges, uneven color, stains, cracks or local scratches, know that these are signs that your roof need a new layer of paint. A beautiful summer day is the ideal time to deal with this operation.
- Cleaning the draining system
Gutters and downspouts have to be maintained periodically because they can be clogged relatively easily, which represents a big risk for damage caused by water infiltrations. Remove any blockage using a pair of gloves, a brush and a power washer. Repair immediately any defects that may occur.
