Maryland's Harsh Weather Conditions Can Affect Your Roof
While the state's weather offers a beautiful mix of all four seasons, it can also present unique challenges for your roof and your property overall. Understanding how Maryland's weather can impact your roof is essential for proper maintenance and protection!
Varying Climate Problems Throughout the Seasons
Maryland experiences distinct weather patterns throughout the year, and each season can take a toll on your roof in their own unique way. Below are a few problems that can pop up over the course of a year for your home’s roofing system.
Springtime Rain Storms and Roof Leaks
As spring arrives in Maryland, so do frequent rainstorms! The combination of heavy rainfall and thawing snow can lead to water leaks and added structural damage to your roof. Proper maintenance and inspections come springtime are crucial to address potential issues before they can develop into major problems later in the year.
Summer's Heat and Strong Storms Can Be Tough on Roofs
Summer will always bring its scorching temperatures and powerful thunderstorms to our neck of the woods in Maryland. The heat can cause roofing materials to expand and contract, potentially leading to damage and cracks throughout the course of the season. Additionally, severe weather and summer storms with high winds and hail can also take a toll on your roof's integrity through lifting shingles and pelting its surface with debris. Hail damage and wind damage are among the most common problems that our roofers see in the summertime.
Simple Solutions is proud to offer top-rated storm restoration services alongside our trusted roof repairs in order to keep your roofing in good condition.
Fall Can Bring Debris and Drainage Problems
Giving fall its namesake, falling leaves, twigs, and debris can accumulate on your roof and in gutters, potentially causing drainage issues and water damage as months go by. Regular gutter cleaning and maintenance is an essential aspect of maintenance for homeowners during this season! Check out our full gutter service page for more information.
Winter Factors Bring Ice Dams, Material Damage, and More
Winter in Maryland often means snow and ice among the freezing temperatures. With cold temperatures and snow on your roof, a natural freezing and thawing cycle can create ice dams, which can trap moisture and lead to roof damage and leaks! In a particularly bad winter, large amounts of snow accumulation can also put stress on your roof's structure and materials. Proper insulation and ventilation are critical to prevent these issues!
