Why It Matters More Than You Think. One thing most homeowners don’t realize: If your roof is 15+ years old, problems usually don’t start with a “big leak.” They start small — and quiet. That’s why roof maintenance is often the smartest (and cheapest) move you can make. What proper roof maintenance actually includes: ✅ Full roof inspection (tiles/shingles, valleys, flashings, penetrations) ✅ Resealing vulnerable areas before water gets in ✅ Minor patching where wear is already visible ✅ Gutter & drainage check ✅ Photo report showing: - What’s good - What needs attention soon - What can safely wait No scare tactics. No guessing. Why this saves you money Small issues left alone turn into: • Interior ceiling damage • Mold • Wood rot • Full roof sections needing replacement Maintenance catches issues before they become insurance claims or 5-figure repairs. Especially important if: • Your roof is 15–30 years old • You’ve had past leaks • Your home is on a slope or hill • You’ve never had a documented roof inspection I always tell homeowners: A roof doesn’t fail overnight — it warns you first. If anyone here ever wants an honest inspection, maintenance, or just a second opinion, I’m happy to help and explain things clearly — with photos, not pressure. 📞 Abe – Repair Guards Reliable.
