As we enter the New Year we are all a little more hopeful that this year will be better. Some of us are still spending more time at home than we are used to, finally noticing some of those To-Do’s or maintenance items around the home that need to be addressed. Your roof is a major component of your home and one we may often overlook, especially if it’s not actively leaking. Don’t put off any roof repairs, maintenance, or reroofing that needs to be done. The roof protects the home and all of its contents. Putting this off can be costly due to rotten wood, interior damage, and mold. It can also be unhealthy due to mold. So start the New Year off right. Get your roof inspected by a professional roofing contractor to look for any roofing issues that may need to be addressed. This will save you money in the long run and help keep you in a healthier home environment for the New Year. Here are some tips that can help you in your process:

• Contact a professional roofing contractor that is fully insured, reputable, and has an actual place of business
• Ask the contractor for proof of insurance
• Ask for a free roof inspection to include: cracked, loose, discolored, or missing shingles, loose or popped up flashing and vents, animal or wind damage, tree limbs rubbing against the roof, clogged gutters, or any other maintenance or repairs needed
• Get your estimate in writing and agree upon payment in full upon completion of work

We wish you a Happy & Healthy New Year! If you are in the Austin or surrounding areas and want your roof inspected, or have any questions regarding your roof, please call J-Conn Roofing at 512-479-0510.
