After a long, wet winter, your roof may have experienced hidden damage like minor leaks, cracked shingles, or clogged gutters. Addressing these issues early helps avoid expensive repairs later and ensures your home stays cool and safe during the East Bay’s hot summer months.

2. Clean Gutters and Downspouts
Clogged gutters lead to water backup and potential roof damage. Make sure your gutters are clean and flowing properly before summer storms hit.
3. Check for Damaged or Missing Shingles
Look for cracked, curled, or missing shingles that could cause leaks. These issues are common after winter storms and high winds.
How the East Bay Climate Affects Your Roof
The combination of strong sun exposure, occasional heavy rains, and fluctuating temperatures can put serious stress on roofing materials. Regular inspections and timely repairs help extend the lifespan of your roof and protect your investment.
Signs You May Need a Roof Repair or Replacement
Visible water stains on ceilings or walls
Sagging or soft spots on the roof
Excessive moss or algae growth
High energy bills (could signal poor insulation or ventilation)
If you notice any of these issues, it's time to call in the pros.
