In addition to inspecting your roof on a regular basis, we can perform preventive maintenance such as cleaning gutters and downspouts each season and clearing debris from valleys and flat areas on the roof.
This will help keep water flowing properly and away from vulnerable areas of the home's structure. We also examine flashings and caulking around penetrations with an eye towards replacing worn out material. Doing this can go a long way in preventing water infiltration during rainstorms and periods of high humidity.
It is also a good idea to check pipes that penetrate the roof for leaks or damage caused by freezing temperatures during winter months in colder climates. Any exposed pipes should be insulated with foam pipe insulation to protect them against cold weather conditions.
Additionally, make sure all vent pipe boots are sealed tightly around their base with caulk or sealant and inspect them twice annually for signs of deterioration or displacement from their original position where wind can blow rainwater inside the attic space below the roof decking material through these openings..

Another critical aspect of roof maintenance plumbing is making sure that there are no clogs in drainage systems associated with the home’s roof structure – either due to leaves and other debris accumulating over time or tree roots growing into gutters and downspouts preventing proper flow of rainwater away from the house foundation area. For example, if you have gutter guards installed on your home’s eaves it may be necessary to clean them out periodically throughout the year for optimal performance when rainfall occurs; if left unchecked, standing water will accumulate, leading not only to potential damage, but also creating an ideal environment for mosquito breeding that may result in negative health consequences if not addressed quickly enough.
Finally, it is essential that you pay attention to any spots where two different types of metal meet on your roof - such as copper flashing near galvanized steel vents - because galvanic corrosion (where one type of metal starts corroding another) can create major leaking problems over time if left unchecked, so consider having protective coatings applied over these metal joints at least once every couple years.
In conclusion, regular inspection combined with diligent preventative maintenance are key components for preserving the life span of your home’s roof and its associated plumbing system components - so contact your local qualified Bendigo professionals today!
