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.

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.

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.

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.

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

During the summer high temperatures can cause a series of issues including:

Roofs Breathe
There is so much that goes into the proper installation, repair or replacement of a roof. It is important to use a roofing company that has the experience and expertise to do the job right. Without the proper installation of a roof ventilation system your whole home could be affected.
Roof ventilation systems are a series of vents that keep air circulation in your home. This keeps your home comfortable and reduces the build up of moisture. Air needs to be able to move through the vents in your roof so that your roof doesn’t overheat.
The team at Phoenix Roofing understands how important air movement is to a roofing system. They also know how to create a ventilation system that won’t allow moisture in or lead to leaks in the future. Visit them online for a free roof inspection at www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

How Much is Too Much?
Roof damage can happen for a variety of reasons. This time of year storms are often to blame with hail, rain and wind leading to potential damage. Other issues can come from overhanging branches, ice, animals or even just the age of the roof. So how do you know if you need to repair or replace your roof? Here are a few things to consider.
Here are some questions to ask when considering repairing your roof or replacing it:
– How old is the roof?
– How long do you plan on staying in the home?
– How bad is the damage
– What is my budget for roof repairs?
– What will my insurance cover?
A professional roof inspection will help determine if your roof can be repaired or if the repair costs are so high it warrants a full replacement. Phoenix Roofing has the experience and expertise to help you make an informed decision. Schedule a free roof inspection at www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

Spring storms are known for their roof damaging capabilities from high winds to hail, but can heavy rain be enough to cause roof problems? Some storms are 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 in volatile spring conditions. The storms the Southeast has seen recently have been especially intense with heavy downpours. To set up your free roof inspection visit www.phoenixroofingsc.com.

Types of Hail
Hail can be one of the most damaging parts of those severe spring storms. This past week areas of the Southeast saw hail ranging in size from very small to baseball size. If your area experiences a hail storm of any kind there are some things you should do to ensure your home and roof are protected.
Hail claims to insurance have to be completed in a specific amount of time or they may not be covered. Be sure not to wait too long! Pay attention to weather reports in your area to see what type of hail occurred. This means looking for descriptions and photos.
While pea size hail may not seem to be an issue, even small hail can cause problems if it is dense enough. Dense hail is often completely clear in color because it contains less air molecules. Dense hail can be very damaging no matter the size because of the impact it causes to your roof.
A professional roof inspection can determine if there was functional or cosmetic damage done to your home. Don’t wait to have this done! If you experienced severe weather schedule a free roof inspection with Phoenix Roofing at www.phoenixroofingsc.com.
