Why You Shouldn’t Wait For Your Union Roof To Leak Before Replacing It
Seeing drips of water coming through your living room ceiling can be an alarming and stressful sign your Union roof needs attention. But waiting for active leaks before considering roof replacement often means damage is extensive. As your trusted local Union roofing contractor for over 50 years, the Utz Roofing team strongly advises homeowners to be proactive instead of waiting for a leak emergency.
Here’s why you shouldn’t wait for leaks before taking roof replacement action:
Once water penetrates inside, saturation under shingles has already spread across the roof deck. Unseen water migration may have even reached down to rafters and insulation by then.
Pinpointing exactly where a leak originates becomes very difficult once water has spread horizontally between roof layers before emerging inside.
Letting leaks continue gives water more time to cause damage. Rot and mold growth results as leaked water soaks roof sheathing, rafters, and insulation.
Wet insulation loses R-value as pores fill with water instead of air. Conditioned indoor air then escapes through the saturated roof, costing you more in energy bills.
Even after leak repairs, the older roof remains prone to further failures. Roof replacement is really the right solution over continual repairs.
Leaks make home buyers wary about big future costs. Even a single leak can discourage offers and lower a home’s sale value.
