Schedule Your Fall Home Updates with Dick’s Roofing Before Winter Arrives!
September 19, 2024
As Southeastern Wisconsin and Northeastern Illinois brace for the winter chill, homeowners should start thinking about their roofs, siding, and windows.
It’s easy to ignore these essential parts of your home until there’s a problem like leaks, drafts, or missing shingles. By then, it’s often too late to avoid costly damage. That’s why Dick’s Roofing, your trusted contractor since 1957, recommends scheduling your home improvements before the snow starts falling.
While fall may seem like an unusual time for home maintenance, there are several benefits to updating your roof, siding, or windows now. Here are six reasons why you should act before winter hits:
1. Prevent Leaks and Water Damage
Roof, siding, and window issues can lead to costly water damage. Loose shingles, damaged flashing, or old windows allow water to seep in, causing structural damage, mold growth, and more. Fixing these issues now helps prevent leaks before winter weather makes them worse.
2. Boost Energy Efficiency
Outdated roofs, worn siding, and old windows can send your energy bills through the roof! Cracks and gaps allow heat to escape, forcing your HVAC system to work overtime. Replacing these elements in the fall helps seal your home and lower energy bills as temperatures drop.
3. Shield Your Home from the Elements
Your roof, siding, and windows are your home’s first line of defense against harsh weather. Hot summer days can wear these components down, leaving them vulnerable to cold, wind, and snow. Scheduling fall updates helps ensure your home is ready to face the elements head-on.
4. Protect New Shingles and Materials
Fall weather is ideal for roof and siding installations because it’s generally mild and dry. This allows new materials to set properly without the risk of damage from extreme heat or rain. Install now to ensure your new roof, siding, or windows are durable and ready to withstand winter’s challenges.
5. Keep Pests Out
As the weather cools, pests like squirrels and insects seek shelter in homes. Cracks in siding, windows, and roofs can become entry points for these unwelcome guests. Repairing or replacing these components in the fall helps keep pests out and your home safe.
6. Increase Your Home’s Value
Planning to sell your home soon? A new roof, siding, or windows can significantly boost your home’s value. Buyers are often willing to pay more for a home with new, energy-efficient features. Make the updates now to maximize your home’s appeal.
