Spring Maintenance for Your Roof

November 11, 2020 by ANC Roofing Inc. Leave a Comment

Once it starts to get warm enough to have cookouts and backyard gatherings, it’s time to take care of your roof. For most people, their roofs don’t come to mind when they think about spring cleaning, but regular maintenance is a vital part of protecting your roof’s longevity.

Safety First

When working on your roof, always take precautions to keep yourself safe. Before performing any maintenance, make sure that it hasn’t rained for a few days. Then, use a sturdy ladder that’s tall enough for you to climb onto the roof safely. You should also wear boots with good traction to avoid slipping. Most importantly, always bring a partner to keep the ladder steady and watch your back.

Keep It Clean

Although the winters in Florida are reasonably mild, there will probably be branches or other debris that built up in your gutters and downspouts earlier in the year during hurricane season. Brush away leaves, branches, and other accumulated debris. Obstruction in your gutters can result in damming, which causes water to puddle on your roof. This buildup of moisture can lead to mold or algae growth that can cause damage. Before trying to fix these issues yourself, you should call a roofing professional.

Keep Track of Damage

After cleaning your roof, look out for damage and take photos because your insurance might cover some of the repairs. Check for missing, cracked, or curling shingles; stains that may indicate leaks; and rust on any metal panels.

Replace It If You Have to

Some problems can be fixed and don’t require lengthy repairs. However, extensive structural damage may require a roof replacement. Roof replacements often provide a much-needed upgrade to make sure your roof can withstand hurricane-force winds while increasing the value of your home.

The Benefits of Metal Roofs

October 21, 2020 by ANC Roofing Inc. Leave a Comment

When you’re in the market for a new roof, you have to think about the longevity and sustainability of the materials you choose. Metal is a reliable roofing option that can add to the value of your home.

Durability

Metal roofs typically last from 40-70 years, making metal one of the most durable roofing materials you can buy. Traditional asphalt roofing often needs repairs after 12-20 years. This longevity offers homeowners long-term savings because they won’t need a replacement for several decades. One factor that improves the durability of metal roofing is its low weight, which helps preserve the home’s structural integrity.

Resistance to the Elements

Metal roofing is fire-resistant, which offers additional protection to homes during thunderstorms and lightning strikes. Most metal roofs can withstand hurricane-force winds of over 160 mph because of their interlocking panels. Also, high amounts of rain and moisture will not cause high-quality metal roofing to corrode.

Heat Insulation

Metal is one of the most energy-efficient roofing materials on the market. These roofs reflect sunlight rather than absorbing it, which helps keep your home cool and reduce electricity costs.

Sustainability

Most metal roofs contain a significant amount of recycled content, which reduces their impact on the environment. Plus, you can recycle the materials used for metal roofing during disposal. Usually, old shingles and other roofing waste are thrown away; this accounts for close to 20 billion pounds of trash in the U.S. each year.

If you’re interested in making the switch to a metal roof, the experts at ANC Roofing Inc. can help. We provide free estimates, extensive warranties, and competitive pricing options. You also won’t need to put down a deposit, which makes it easier to get the services you need. For decades, our team has served homeowners in Winter Park and the rest of the Greater Orlando area.

Four of the Biggest Threats to Your Home’s Roof

August 27, 2020 by ANC Roofing Inc. Leave a Comment

Leaves and twigs clogging up a home's gutterA working roofing system provides your home with insulation, protection from inclement weather, and rainwater diversion. If your roof gets damaged, your home may become vulnerable to structural issues, water seepage, and other problems. Here are four of the biggest threats to your home’s roof.

Falling Trees

Fortunately, not every home is at risk from falling tree trunks, limbs, and branches. But if your home is near several large trees, you may want to consider trimming or removing them. Heavy debris from falling trees can crack, puncture, or even destroy your roof. Light debris from leaves and twigs can build up in your gutters and cause rainwater to back up.

Pooling Water

Even if your gutters are clean, your roof may still be at risk of allowing rainwater to pool, which can cause seepage or significant structural damage. Flat roofs or roofs with old, sagging sections are particularly vulnerable to pooling water. If you notice water building up after it rains, schedule a roof inspection as soon as possible.

Sunlight and Wind

Extreme heat and light from the sun can wear away at your roof over time, as can strong winds from storms. Because homes in Florida are often exposed to sunlight and intense winds from powerful storms and hurricanes, local homeowners should have their roofs inspected and repaired regularly.

Clogged Gutters

Over time, tree branches, leaves, dirt, dust, and pollen build up in gutters. When the water from rain can no longer flow off of a roof, it can back up and lead to interior water seepage. This can quickly cause serious problems like mildew, mold, and structural damage, which may not be immediately visible if they occur in the attic or inside the walls.

Maintaining a healthy roofing system protects your home from bad weather, extreme temperatures, and water damage. ANC Roofing Inc. offers a full range of roofing installation, repair, and insulation services to residents of Winter Garden and the Orlando metro area.

Roofing Trends to Watch for in 2020

June 9, 2020 by ancconstructioninc Leave a Comment

If you’re budgeting for a new roof this year, it’s time to explore the new and innovative options available for your home. Whether you’re interested in boosting your curb appeal or increasing efficiency, these are the top four roofing trends to look for in 2020.

Flat Silhouettes

This year, a flat roof looks anything but boring. Homeowners who love a sleek, modern look appreciate the clean lines created by this shape. If you eventually plan to install solar panels, a roof garden, or other sustainable features, consider prepping your property for the upgrade with a flat roof.

Metal Roofing

While asphalt roofing shingles have long been a mainstay, aluminum and steel roofs are becoming much more common. Even if you’ve never considered a metal roof before, you may be swayed by benefits like:

  • Durability: Metal roofs last up to five decades with minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Sustainability: Homeowners can choose recycled materials and the metal can be recycled again when it’s time for an upgrade.
  • Appearance: Metal works with a range of architectural styles and decor aesthetics, so it’s a versatile choice. Choose from various colors, including brown, copper, bronze, and blue.

Upgraded Asphalt Choices

As the most common type of roof in the United States, asphalt can hardly be called a trend. However, today’s varieties put a new spin on this classic roofing material with enhanced durability and a more diverse range of color and finish choices. Homeowners can also select reflective asphalt shingles that keep the roof and the home cool, an attractive proposition here in sunny Florida. With proper care, asphalt can last up to 25 years, even in extreme heat.

Light Colors

While black, gray, and brown roofs are still the norm, more homeowners are choosing lighter roof hues than ever before. Look for neutral shades like taupe and ecru along with bold primary colors like blue, green, and red.

If you live in Orlando, Winter Garden, and the surrounding area, ANC Roofing Inc. offers competitive pricing on new roofs, along with free estimates, financing options, and comprehensive warranty programs. Call 407-654-4500 or complete our online form to request an estimate.

How Installing a New Roof Is Good for Selling a Home

November 11, 2019 by ANC Roofing Inc. Leave a Comment

Neighborhood, school district, size, amenities—these are all important features when it comes time to put a house on the market. One home feature that’s often overlooked, however, is its roof, and according to recent reports by Remodeling Magazine, having a new roof can increase a home’s market value by up to $12,000. Here’s how installing a new roof is one way to increase the chances of a quick, successful home sale.

A New Roof Increases the Chance of a Successful Inspection

The condition of a home’s roof tells prospective buyers a lot about how secure and updated the property is. Having a recent roof replacement is especially helpful during a home inspection, which is a major selling point. A roof that’s falling apart or showing obvious signs of wear and tear will be a major red flag to inspectors, so installing a new one can ensure a more positive inspection.

Appearance Is Everything

When prospective buyers arrive at a home for sale, the first thing they’ll do is inspect the house’s exterior to gain a first impression. If the roof is damaged, missing shingles, or appears otherwise in need of repairs, buyers will be less inclined to consider purchasing. Having a roof replacement ensures that the home’s exterior looks updated and safe, which will be a major selling factor to buyers.

A New Roof Can Mean Energy Savings

As sustainability and energy efficiency become increasingly attractive as home features, new roofing that complies with environmental standards will become more desirable to buyers. Some new roofing materials are specially designed to better reflect solar heat, which reduces overall energy consumption and, as a result, energy expenses. Showing buyers that a home is outfitted for a “greener” future can, therefore, be a major selling point.

Having a roof replacement can increase a home’s chances on the market in several ways. For over 25 years, ANC Roofing Inc. has been outfitting homes in Winter Garden and the surrounding Orlando area with modern, lasting roofing.
