What’s Most Important When It Comes To Your Home’s Roof?
Many times when a home’s attic experiences frost, moisture, and condensation, homeowners are quick to blame their roof. While this can be the case, many times, the actual culprit is inadequate insulation and ventilation.
Many homeowners are surprised to learn that proper ventilation, coupled with attic air sealing can play a bigger role in the condition of your attic than insulation can.
Attic air sealing involves closing up all open attic crevices that expose the area to outdoor air. Partnering with a contractor that treats the roof as an entire system, rather than just shingles, will ensure that your roof reaches its maximum possible lifespan. Seasoned roofing contractors can also put a customized plan together for your home because they understand that every home has unique needs.
