One of the key priorities for any homeowner should be to keep damp out of their property. Damp and mould within a home is not only unsightly, it can cause structural damage and create a range of health risks for the inhabitants. It simply isn’t worth taking the risk with moisture.
A common cause of damp is penetrative rain, which enters the building through damaged parts of a property. During periods of bad weather, moisture can reach the interior through cracks, gaps and broken tiles, creating all manner of difficulties for homeowners, tenants and other occupants.
This is why it is essential to conduct regular maintenance checks on roofing, to ensure there are no points of weakness that can be exploited by rainwater. If major damage is caused to the roof, it may require a full replacement in future, rather than minor repair work. This may entail greater expense and more disruption while the work is carried out.
Roof junctions are a common trouble spot for properties, particularly older buildings which have not received regular maintenance over the years. Water can easily find its way into properties through ridges, hips and flashings, meaning it is imperative to maintain the integrity of the roof.
