Just Getting Started

It seems that 2024 is off to an active hurricane season start. Unfortunately the typical hurricane season lasts from June to the end of November. These unsettled months can produce storms of varying strengths and trajectories. Don’t be caught off guard! Set up a free roof inspection with Phoenix Roofing to ensure your roof is ready for the months ahead.

Damage to your roof could result in major issues if a strong storm comes through the area. High winds and torrential rain will take advantage of minor weaknesses in your roof and threaten the security of your home. This includes broken or degraded shingles, problems with flashing or unstable roof decking.

Phoenix Roofing knows how to identify potential issues in your roof before they become more serious. Set an appointment online for your free roof inspection today!

Roof Buckling

August 12, 2024 by MikeDominick

Roof buckling is when the shingles on your roof can appear wrinkled or distorted. This can happen for a variety of reasons but is typically an issue with movement of the roof deck. A roof deck refers to the boards that make up the framing of the roof itself. Buckling can happen with any type of roof deck but more typically happens with board decks.

Reasons for roof buckling includes:

–       Exposure of the roof deck to moisture during construction or repair

–       Expansion or contraction of board decks

–       Uneven decking installation

–       Poor nail installation or materials under the shingles 

If you suspect issues with roof buckling contact Phoenix Roofing for a free roof inspection. We know what to look for and how to fix it. Having your roof working as it should is a vital part of your home’s structural integrity. Visit phoenixroofingsc.com to schedule.

Storm Damage and Rain

August 8, 2024 by MikeDominick

Tropical storms and hurricanes are known for their roof damaging capabilities from high winds to hail, but can heavy rain be enough to cause roof problems?  Forecasters are predicting that Hurricane Debby may be capable of dumping heavy amounts of rain in a short amount of time. Even without the wind and hail associated with those storms, rain can create its own set of issues.

Water can get underneath your roof shingles and cause damage to the structure of the roof deck leading to potential leaks into your home. Large amounts of rain in a short period of time can overwhelm your home’s gutters leading to possible flooding. Heavy rain will infiltrate even the smallest of cracks in the seals on your roof.

It is important to have regular roof inspections especially during hurricane season. To set up your free roof inspection visit www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

Caring for a New Roof

July 29, 2024 by MikeDominick

How to Care for a New Roof

You’ve finally got that brand new roof. The house looks better than it has in years and you can rest secure that it’s protected from the elements. So how do you ensure that the roof stays new for as long as possible? There are some basic maintenance items you can do to try and keep that roof looking new as long as possible.

  • Trim tree branches that overhang the roof and may drop debris especially during a storm
  • Keep gutters clear and flowing
  • Purchase some binoculars so you can check for damaged or missing shingles
  • Make sure animals or pests aren’t building up residence on the roof
  • Allow for proper roof ventilation

Most importantly…have regular roof inspections! The experienced team at Phoenix Roofing knows how to maintain your new roof and keep it functioning as it should. Schedule an appointment online at www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

Cool Off

Can A Roof Replacement Keep You Cooler?

A fully functioning roof system is important for so many reasons. Roofs protect your home from the elements – rain, wind, snow, hail, ice – and even the outside temperatures. You may not realize it but a roof will keep your home temperature stable when it is working as it should. This makes your home comfortable and help you save money on energy costs.

If you have an older roof you may want to consider a replacement – especially in this summer heat. New roofs have better insulation and more modern materials that are constructed to better keep the heat out and cool in. Many new roof coatings offer a reflective option that keeps sunlight from being absorbed into your home.

To talk with an experienced team about replacing or upgrading your roof this summer, contact Phoenix Roofing for a free roof inspection. Visit www.phoenixroofingsc.com

Prep for Hurricanes

Hurricane Season 2024 

Hurricane season is underway with the monster of a storm Beryl that churned through the Caribbean this past week. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season. This means potentially more storms and stronger storms.

What does this mean for your roof?

There are steps you can take now to minimize potential roof damage if a hurricane does affect your area.  This includes:

–       Ensuring there are not existing leaks, loose shingles or damage

–       Checking flashing to make sure it is secure and preventing moisture from entering the roof

–       Trimming or removing branches or dead trees that could become projectiles during a storm

–       Talk with a roofing professional about how you can take added security measures if a storm is on the way

Phoenix Roofing provides free roof inspections to ensure your home is ready for the dangers of high winds and rain during hurricane season. Don’t wait any longer! Make sure you are ready for whatever nature throws at you this summer and fall. www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

DIY Metal Roof?

Should You DIY a Metal Roof

Search on YouTube and you feel like with enough videos under your belt you can do just about anything. The truth is most things are not that easy. This is especially true with trying to DIY your metal roof installation.

Metal roofs have become popular for good reason. Their durability, long life span, and energy efficiency make them excellent choices for new roofs or replacement roofs. They come in a variety of colors and extra coatings can make them last even longer.

However, metal roofs are complex to install and doing it incorrectly can leave you with a lot of trouble. An improperly installed roof can lead to damage throughout your home as water leaks in and be the source of costly repairs. Installing a metal roof takes training and specialized tools.

Leave the installation to the professionals on this home project – reach out to Phoenix Roofing.

Roofing Questions

June 21, 2024 by MikeDominick

Real Questions

I think we’ve all heard the expression that there are no stupid questions. This applies to roofing questions as well. One we’ve received at Phoenix Roofing is – can you apply new shingles over existing shingles when repairing a roof? The short answer is yes!

There are some qualifications to that answer. A lot depends on the condition of your current roof. Here are some things to look for to see if your new shingles can be applied without removing the current ones:

–       Is there only one layer of existing shingles?

–       Is the roof deck in good condition?

–       Are the current shingles laying flat?

If the answer to all of those questions is Yes you may be eligible for keeping your current roof shingles in place. The best way to determine this is with a roof inspection from the professional team at Phoenix Roofing. Schedule your inspection at www.phoenixroofingsc.com
