Your roof was designed with only one purpose in mind: to
keep the elements from getting in your home. Along with its walls, the people
inside your home depend on your ceiling to provide them with shelter. More than
any other season, winter will put that roof of yours to the test. If you want
to make it through winter without worrying about the cold, you need to put
elastomeric roof coatings. Keep reading to find out what that entails and what
your options are.
Clean the Gutters
Winterizing your roof starts long before snow falls. But
don’t begin before the leaves do either. Ideally, you want to get out there
right between the two events so you can clean all that foliage out of your
gutters. Leaves and other debris can weigh down your gutters during winter,
making the snow that lands in there even worse. But the real problem comes when
that snow melts, turns to water and has nowhere to go because their exit is
blocked. All that weight could be enough to tear the gutters from your home.
