Did you know that your roof helps keep energy bills low every month? It reflects the sun’s harmful UV rays and keeps them from heating up your attic space more than absolutely necessary. When you have missing shingles, the sun can easily heat up this area of your home and make it difficult for HVAC systems to do their job properly. This leads to higher monthly energy costs on top of increased wear-and-tear on equipment like air conditioners or furnaces! Unfortunately, your problems won’t end once winter rolls around. Just as heat can get inside of an attic through the bare underlayment in summertime so too will cold air be able to seep into it during the colder months. Your home’s heating system will have to work that much harder to maintain a comfortable temperature indoors and ultimately these higher costs could damage you financially over time if left untreated for long periods of time without being fixed promptly by professionals like Firehouse Roofing.
