Roof Granule Loss

Roof granule loss is a common issue that homeowners face when their roofing system ages. Granules serve a crucial role in protecting the shingles from harmful weather conditions, such as UV radiation and rain. As the shingles age, the granules become worn and can detach from the shingle surface, leading to a reduction in the shingle’s protective capabilities.

There are several reasons for roof granule loss, including manufacturing defects, mechanical damage, and natural weathering. Poor maintenance practices, such as failing to clean gutters or trimming trees overhanging roofs, can also contribute to granule loss.

If left unattended, granule loss can lead to more severe roofing problems. Without granules, the shingles are more vulnerable to wind and rain damage, and UV radiation can deteriorate the shingle’s structure, causing leaks and other damage.

Homeowners should address roof granule loss promptly to prevent further damage. Regular inspections and maintenance can help to identify problems early and allow for quick repairs. Professional roofers can also provide solutions for granule loss, including roof coatings or replacements.

In conclusion, roof granule loss is a problem that should not be taken lightly. Proper maintenance and prompt repairs can help to prevent further damage, saving homeowners from costly repairs and replacements.

I recently had my first house inspected by Todd and his team, and it was a great experience. Todd taught me a lot about the house while he completed his detailed inspection. He strikes me as a very honest and trustworthy guy. 10/10 would recommend! - 8/02/2024

Todd was very thorough and quick. He allowed us to ask many questions and made sure we were aware of any issues small and large. He even showed us pictures of the roof and gave his insight. The coolest part was him showing us a picture of the house when it was first built! I would definitely recommend Todd for future inspections! - 9/24/2021

This has been the most thorough inspection I have ever seen, and maybe some of the best communication a company ever provided. If I could give 12 stars I would. And I will only be using them from now on if I have a say. - 7/20/2024
