5 most common issues with a roof
Hey there, friends from the Treasure Valley! As someone who's had a fair share of home-related headaches, I know how crucial it is to keep your roof in good nick. It's our shield against the wild Idaho weather, after all. Over time though, things like harsh winds, hail, and sunshine can make your roof lose its mojo.
Broken or MIA Shingles
Let's chat about shingles - our roofs' knight in shining armor against rain, wind, you name it. Life's rough for them, what with all the storms and general wear and tear, right? These tough cookies can crack, loosen, or sometimes disappear altogether! So, it's smart to give your roof a checkup now and then to nip any problems in the bud and save the rest of your roof.
Leaky Roof and Water Damage
Our Boise weather can really keep you on your toes. One minute it's sunny, the next, you're in the middle of a downpour. This can lead to leaks that may sneak up on you, causing water damage inside your home over time. That's why we need to catch these sneaky leaks early. This way, we avoid surprises like mold, rot, and empty wallets from costly repairs.
Gutter Troubles
Your gutters work overtime to drain water off your roof. If they're clogged or damaged, water can pool up and cause trouble for your roof and even the foundation of your house. Regular cleaning and upkeep of your gutters will make sure they continue to do their job like champs.
Worn Out Flashing
Flashing – those thin, weather-proofing layers around your chimney, vents, skylights, they're key to stopping water from getting into places it shouldn't. Just like the rest of the roof, they take a beating from the elements and can degrade. So, keep an eye on your flashing to stop water from sneaking in and causing dampness problems in your home.
Venting It Out
Often ignored, but super important, roof ventilation is key to keeping a healthy roof. Without it, moisture builds up in the attic, leading to mold and a compromised roof. Sorting out ventilation issues can even help regulate indoor temperatures, making your home cozier all year round.
Being a homeowner in Boise, I know the common issues that can mess with our roofs. Regular check-ups can save us a bunch of headaches and a whole lot of cash on repairs.

“I worked with Owyhee Roofing after getting an outrageous estimate on replacing my roof from someone else. They were responsive within one day, and got to work on estimating and scheduling right away. My roof looks beautiful. I worked with Austin and his team.
