Naperville Roofing Company Advises that Early Fall is an Essential Time to Get Roofs Storm Ready

September 06, 2019 – – As summer transitions into fall, those at Naperville Roofing and Construction Company want to remind those in the area that there is no better time to get roofing work done than in the early fall. This will help any home or business in the area get their roofs prepared to better handle rough fall and winter weather conditions. Since they have been serving Naperville and the surrounding communities since 1998, this is a company that really knows the area’s weather patterns and how they impact people’s roofs.

The owner, James Kucharz, had this to say about why it’s important to get roofing work done in the early fall, “There are no two seasons that are rougher on Naperville roofs than fall and winter. The heavy rains, big snow loads, and high winds that come during this time of year are not your roof’s friend by any means. These conditions will exploit any weakness that your roof has and quite possibly leave it damaged or leaking. Roofs that are in a state of disrepair are especially susceptible to winter and fall roofing damage. So we always urge our customers to be proactive and get their roofs ready for the harsh fall and winter weather conditions that undoubtedly will arrive.”

Kurcharz went on to add that winter weather is his absolute biggest concern as far as roof damage goes. Strong winds and freezing temperatures can really wreak havoc on a roof that’s not prepared for these things. Ice dams, ice buildup, and heavy snow loads can catch the edges of loose shingle and tear up whole sections of the roof. It’s also the time of year where condensation can hurt the integrity of a roof that is in poor shape. That’s because the condensation that occurs when warm inside air meets cold outside air builds up under loose and worn shingles and then freezes and expands causing damage.

Fall is not as harsh on roofs as winter weather but it also creates its own set of problems. Many of these come from the strong winds that often occur in Naperville at this time of year. Loose gutters, shingles with frayed up edges, and loose chimney and vent flashing are extremely susceptible to damage from strong winds.

He also mentioned that fall weather conditions are perfect for doing roofing work. Underlayments, shingles, and other roofing materials go down much better when the temperature is below 60 degrees. This type of weather is even much easier on the roofing crews as they can work harder and longer when it’s not so hot outside. Early fall shingle application also gives newly laid down shingle time to bond with a roof’s surface and make a good seal before more extreme weather hits. Kurcharz stated that a properly working roof not only keeps the elements out but it also helps insulate a home better during the colder months.
