Philadelphia experiences harsh weather conditions that can impact roofs. The National Weather Service (NWS) warns that extreme temperatures, heavy snowfall, and storms can cause significant damage.
1. Inspect Your Roof Regularly
The FEMA Guide to Protecting Roofs advises homeowners to inspect shingles, flashing, and gutters twice a year.
2. Reinforce Roof Structures
Adding hurricane straps or upgrading to impact-resistant shingles can minimize storm damage. The OSHA Roofing Safety Guide provides guidelines on securing roofing structures.
3. Clean and Maintain Gutters
Clogged gutters cause water buildup, leading to leaks and foundation damage. The EPA recommends proper drainage to prevent structural issues.
