During hurricane season and beyond, a simple DIY roof check is something homeowners can (and should) do to head off problems. While major storms can be damaging, the impact of thunderstorms, lightning, and years of sunshine affect a roof, too. Roofing and home inspection professionals suggest three things homeowners can do to protect not only their roof but also their entire home.

First:  Survey the Ground Around the Home

Inspect around the base of the home after it rains. Observe what’s on the downspout splash block or the ground just beyond. If there’s granulation, that’s a tell-tell sign the shingles are aging, compromised, and may need to be replaced.

“As a roof naturally ages, there will be more granulation washing off the shingles,” said Eric Bergin, general manager for Florida Fortified Roofing Services. “When hail strikes a roof, ice can break off the granulation that protects the shingle’s matting below. With hail damage, homeowners may have a case for their insurance company to replace or repair the roof.”

Second:  Inspect the Attic

Inspect the attic after rain. Look for saturation spots above, on the sheathing or plywood. If there is saturation or water stains, there is likely rot from the top down. Continue reading →

LADY LAKE — A beloved holiday tradition is making its return! The Town of Lady Lake is pleased to announce that the annual Christmas Parade will take place Saturday, Dec. 5, thanks to the generous support of PARALIFE Financial, which has stepped forward to fully sponsor the event.
