BC Roof Inspections, BC Winter Rain

Winter Rain in BC can cause many problems. Roof inspections are the best way to prevent a leaky roof and roof damage

In British Columbia, winter rain must be considered by every homeowner. It has a long-term effect on roofs and more importantly on the homes that roofs are built to protect. Heavy rainfall is a constant issue in British Columbia. Even the strongest of houses can contain weak spots that will prove troublesome. Heavy rains can cause shingles to loosen or even dislodge from the roof. If you have a leaky roof, you’re in trouble. You can avoid this by having your roof inspected regularly. The combination of heavy rains and high-pressure winds will wear away at a faulty roof over time. 

These two factors and several others will eventually cause the roof to deteriorate. This will cause leaks and other problems. Over time, leaks like these can lead to growth of bacteria, dry rot, and eventually a collapsed roof or ceiling. 

Heavy rainfall in the winter is a big problem in the Lower Mainland. If you live in Burnaby, Langley, Surrey, or Vancouver or anywhere else in the Lower Mainland. The best way to deal with this if you live in BC is have a roof inspection from a certified BC Roof Inspector.
