Setting the Standard in AZ Roofing Since 1993
Arizona homeowners should pay attention to the potential damage caused by our region’s intense heat and UV rays. The scorching summers can be particularly harsh on roofing materials, leading to premature aging, degradation, and, ultimately, the failure of the roof to protect your home as intended.
Signs your roof may have sun damage include:
Remember, knowing the signs of heat-related damage is crucial for timely intervention and repair, ensuring the longevity and integrity of your roofing system.
The restoration of heat and UV-damaged asphalt shingle roofs typically involves a multipart process that starts with a detailed inspection to assess the extent of the damage. Our professional roofers will examine all affected areas and create a comprehensive repair plan. Depending on the severity, the repair process may range from replacing individual shingles to applying sealants that can protect the roof from future damage.
If your roof has significant damage, we may recommend a replacement of the affected section or, in extreme cases, the entire roof. However, at Lyons Roofing, we understand that roof replacements are a significant investment and consider all viable repair options first.
Why should homeowners prioritize professional repair over DIY? Firstly, roofing professionals like ours possess the tools, equipment, and expertise to conduct repairs safely. Furthermore, all of our roofers are trained to identify the obvious signs of damage and the more subtle indicators that an untrained eye might overlook.
In terms of effectiveness, professionals also have access to high-quality materials and the latest roofing technologies that can enhance the roof’s resistance to heat and UV rays, extending its lifespan and improving energy efficiency in the home. Attempting to repair a roof without this can result in only temporary fixes that don’t address underlying issues.
Finally, professional repairs often come with warranties that provide peace of mind for the future. While the initial cost of professional repairs might seem higher than a DIY approach, and you may be tempted to leave a sun-damaged roof alone, thinking it is just a cosmetic issue, the long-term benefits far outweigh the initial investment.
