If you own a home, you know that the roof is one of the most fundamental parts of the house. It protects the occupants and the interior from the weather, acts as a foundation for the external adornments of the house (e.g., gutters), and significantly contributes to the value of the home. However, over time even the best roofs can show some age. If your roof’s shingles are among the modern architectural style, and they still look pretty good, but they don’t quite shine the way they did when they were newly installed, consider using STL Roof Renew. Here are some signs that roof shingles need renewal, how to notice them, and some potential reasons to consider a remedy using STL Roof Renew.
Check Your Shingle Color
The most apparent symptom of maturing shingles is a color shift. If your roof has dimmed and looks less than lively, it might need some sprucing up. Why do shingles fade? Part of the problem is UV exposure.
Inspect your Gutters
Inspect your gutters to see if they are carrying away any of the granules from your roof. Loss of granules is a sign that roofing shingles are nearing the end of their lifespan; when the protective layer of granules is lost, the layers of underlying shingles are exposed to the sun, wind, and rain, which can lead to the kind of leaks that cause serious damage to the interior of a house.
Pay Attention to Energy Costs
If you have seen your energy bills rising, it may be because your roof is underperforming. Your roof’s insulation—or lack thereof—can cause serious energy issues.
How Roof Renew Can Help
STL Roof Renew works to maintain the vitality of your roof by restoring the vital oils in your shingles that make them perform like new. It keeps shingles from losing those oils too early, which is something that can really impair the roof’s integrity. In fact, with a proper rejuvenation, some shingles can regain so much vitality that they can keep performing for another 10 to 15 years. That’s a whole lot of extended life, and it definitely beats re-roofing!
