As the end of the year approaches, the coldest days in Kirkland bring lower temperatures and challenging weather conditions, so it’s important to make sure your roofs are in good shape.

In this blog post, we’ll explore the main trends, curiosities, and important tips that will help you prepare and maintain the safety and efficiency of your roofs:

Roofing trends for colder days:

During the winter, roofs face harsher conditions such as rain, snow, and ice. For this reason, many people are opting for materials that offer greater durability and thermal protection.

Kirkland, located in the Pacific Northwest region, is known for its frequent rains during the fall and winter. These rains, combined with the low temperatures, can cause ice to build up on the edges of the roof, creating a risk to the structure.

An interesting fact is that roofs in shadier areas or with greater exposure to wind tend to accumulate more ice, which can increase the risk of damage.

Essential tips for protecting your roof:

Preventive inspection: Carry out a detailed roof inspection before temperatures drop dramatically. Look for damaged tiles, clogged gutters, and possible infiltration points.

Gutter cleaning: Keep gutters clean to ensure that rainwater and melted snow flow freely, preventing ice buildup.

Don’t leave preparing your roof for winter to the last minute.
