 Hi, I'm John Nepala, CEO of Long Home Products, and today we want to talk about some tips and advice, things you want to know about your roof. Homeowners need to think about 15 years into the life of that roof that there could be some issues. Things to look for are crack shingles, missing shingles, brittle shingles. Inside the home, if you get in your attic, that there may be signs of water damage, leakage, mold, mildew. Most people think that a roof is just shingles, and really it is a system. It is a series of layers that work together, comprised of shingles and then an underlayment and then sheathing underneath. What's interesting is many insurance companies won't even cover repair because they know that it's just going to lead to further money out and further repairs down the road. And lastly, homeowners need to look at the big picture. You only want to do this project one time and you want to do it right. Often, the setup required for a simple repair is just the same in time, effort, inconvenience and money as it is just to get your roof replaced.
