Nebraska weather doesn’t take it easy on our homes. From spring hailstorms to summer downpours and icy winter winds, your roof takes a beating year-round. That’s why fall is the perfect time for a professional roof inspection. At Skyline Imaging Roofing, we help homeowners get ahead of damage before the snow flies.
Here are five reasons you shouldn’t wait until winter to have your roof inspected.
1. Catch Storm Damage Before Winter Hits
Hail and high winds from summer storms can leave cracks, missing shingles, and hidden leaks. If that damage isn’t repaired before freezing weather arrives, it can worsen dramatically. An inspection in the fall ensures small issues are handled before they become expensive winter emergencies.
2. Prevent Freeze-Thaw Damage
Nebraska’s fall and winter temperatures often swing from warm afternoons to freezing nights. This freeze-thaw cycle forces water into tiny cracks in your roof, expanding them into major leaks. By scheduling an inspection in the fall, you can identify weak points before the cycle begins.
3. Clear Gutters & Prevent Ice Dams
Fall leaves don’t just clutter your yard—they clog gutters too. Blocked gutters cause water to back up onto the roof, leading to leaks, rot, and ice dams in winter. During a fall inspection, your roofing team can make sure gutters and downspouts are flowing freely.
4. Save on Winter Energy Bills
A damaged or aging roof lets heat escape, forcing your furnace to work harder. By repairing leaks or replacing worn-out shingles in the fall, you’ll head into winter with a tighter, more energy-efficient home—and lower utility bills.
5. Easier, Safer Inspections With Drone Technology
Snow and ice make traditional roof inspections risky and less effective. Thermal drone inspections in the fall provide a complete aerial view of your roof, revealing hidden moisture, hail impacts, and weak spots before winter hides them.
Protect Your Home Before Winter
Fall isn’t just pumpkin spice season—it’s roof inspection season. By acting now, you’ll save money, protect your investment, and head into winter with peace of mind.
At Skyline Imaging Roofing, we combine thermal drone technology, local expertise, and a commitment to being your accountability partner through every step of the process.
