Your roof and gutters are designed to withstand some of the most severe weather and natural calamities out there. However, even the best types of roofing and gutter materials can succumb to the ravages of the elements, leading to issues such as leaks. In today’s blog post, your preferred roofing construction company YES Roofing & Exteriors shares three of the most hazardous consequences of a leaky roof and gutters.
Compromised Structural Integrity
This is why you should schedule an inspection with your roofing contractor at the first sign of leaks. Better yet, schedule an inspection after every storm to ensure your roofing and gutters are still intact.
Health Hazards
Fire Hazards
Water and electrical wires are never a good combination as it can lead to life-threatening fires. The area that is most likely to be vulnerable is your attic or ceiling where electrical wiring tends to be concealed and therefore not checked as often as it should be checked. There might be frayed or shorted wires that need to be fixed.
