    How Do I Know If I Need a New Roof?

    Signs of water damage on interior walls usually indicate that your roof is in need of leak repair. If you uncover damaged sheets, deteriorated flashing and other visible problems, you will at least need to do some repairs, or possibly replace the old roof for a new one.

    How Do I Clean My Steel Roof?

    Under normal conditions, the surface of your roof will be kept sufficiently clean by rainfall, although any fallen leaves, twigs, etc., not washed away by rainwater should be cleared from the roof on an annual basis. Roof valleys and rainwater systems also require annual cleaning.

    Although a steel roof requires only minimal maintenance, you should check your roof twice a year, before the winter and again right after the winter.

    How Do I Know If My Roof is in Good or Bad Condition?

    Regular inspections at least twice a year help to uncover damaged sheets, deteriorated flashing and other visible problems. You should time your inspections for the spring and also the autumn before the snow falls.

    If you detect any problems with your roof, we recommend you get a professional opinion on whether a roof renovation is needed or not.
