Temperature Swings in the North East!

The Tri-State area can see changes of up to 30 degrees within 24-48 hours!

Thermal Shock they call it!  Not a great thing to go through as a home owner, but as roofs goes through many seasons of warm weather and cold weather, expanding and contracting, the roof can crack in places it normally wouldn't.

​

Expansion and contraction that happens in temperature swings do take a toll on your roof.  Joints can crack, seams can tear, and roofing materials can break down and deteriorate.  

​

Older roofs can be thought of as brittle rubber bands, and that doesn't feel too comfortable as a home owner.  

​

Make sure you take care of any curling or broken shingles, clear any algae, and make sure all flashing is secured.  If you have any issues, call us ASAP!
