Optimal Composite Roof Care Tips

  • Biannual and Post-Storm Inspections: Regularly check your roof for any signs of damage or aging, especially following severe weather events.
  • Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft brush and water to remove debris and maintain the shingle's integrity, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners.
  • Gutter Upkeep: Ensure gutters are clear to prevent water backup and protect the roof’s structure.
  • Ensure Adequate Ventilation: Good attic ventilation is crucial to prevent moisture accumulation that can weaken shingles over time.
  • Expert Identification: While composite shingles can resemble slate, wood, or other materials, they typically exhibit a more consistent appearance. To accurately determine your roof’s material, refer to home documents or the manufacturer’s details on shingles. However, for precise identification and advice, a professional roofing contractor’s assessment is recommended.
