Autumn is approaching quickly, beginning officially next week. It will bring lots of change, including wetter weather and more colours in nature. At home you have a number of things to think about. One of the key ones is roof maintenance. Is your property ready for more rain, leaves, and colder temperatures? You may want to contact us to arrange the best roof cleaning Weybridge can offer.

Why is it so important?

We have had some periods of record breaking hot weather this summer and large parts of the UK are still in drought status. In that time you probably have not given any thought to your roofing and gutters. However, you will want to make sure everything is in order for when more rain arrives. You definitely don’t want to find there is an issue because you suddenly have a leak or overflowing gutters.

It is much better for your wallet and peace of mind to look at the roof and gutters early in autumn. This can be the sweet spot when the weather is still quite warm and mostly dry. Investing in maintenance could spot problems like loose or missing tiles, gutter clogs, and organic growths.

What to do?

One of the things that make us the top provider of roof cleaning Weybridge has is we know what to do here. Firstly, you should inspect the roofing and gutters. It will give you a much better idea of what you will need next.

In most cases you will need to clean the roof and guttering. This is especially true if you haven’t done it or had a professional service already this year. What you want is to be in a situation where you can say that any rain will flow down the roof and through the gutters without hindrance. This reduces the risk of damp and leaks. For that to happen you don’t want dirt, moss, algae, or other debris in the way.

Properties with tall trees nearby are at the most risk in autumn. There will be a much higher chance of leaves falling or blowing on to the roof here. Plus, there is the chance of branches and sticks falling too. This can cause blockages or even damage roofing materials. What you need to do is check the trees and think about trimming any branches back that are too close to your property.

It is also a really good idea to check any flashing on the roof. It can wear away over time and may even pull away from the surface. Sadly that can result in leaks. You should inspect it to ensure there are no problems. If a replacement is necessary, arrange it before the wettest weather arrives.
