Ideal Precision Roofing and Exteriors

The Texas Summer sun shows no mercy to our homes. Our roofs especially, are at most risk during the hot and sunny Texas days. While we’re enjoying the pools or inside enjoying the AC, our home’s roofs are being exposed to extreme heat. Heat damage is more common than we might think. When roofs are exposed to extreme heat, it is more vulnerable to leaks, compromised shingles and discoloration. 

Heat damage can cause cracked shingles. When shingles crack, the integrity of your roof is extremely compromised. Cracked shingles on roofs make your home so vulnerable to leaks. Heat can dry out and harden shingles and they become brittle and are more susceptible to crack.

Discoloration is another sign of heat damage to your roof. Whether its rust from too much exposure to heat and water or bleaching, if your shingles have changed colors, give Ideal Precision Roofing a call for a free inspection. Your roof could be in danger to bigger issues if not taken care of.

After several days of extreme heat, it is possible that components of your roof could start to melt. If your roof is made of asphalt, a material susceptible to melt in high temperatures, please be in attention to heat indexes. 

In the case of inefficient ventilation of the roof, extreme heat can lead to condensation and heat build up on the inside. Direct sunlight can impact shingles and other exterior roofing elements, causing premature wear. If you believe that your roof has endured extreme heat and too much direct sunlight, your roof could be in great danger. Call Ideal Precision Roofing for all your roofing needs. We are the only call you need to make!
