The summertime can give you a lot of great opportunities to fix your roof and take care of repairing those old broken shingles that you never used to have time for.

 

But what are the simplest roof repairs you can consider in the summer, that you can even try as a relaxing DIY project, instead of calling in a professional roofer?

 

One of the first things you can try is to have one of the licensed San Antonio roofing companies inspect your roof and find any loose, broken, cracked or dented shingles or tiles that need to be replaced. Sometimes you don’t even need a replacement, and you can simply use a few hardware tools to reshape or reattach loose or dented roofing components without even spending a dime.

 

Depending on where the problem originates, leaks can also be addressed during the summer. Because the roof is dry, you can easily walk around it and check for leaks, and you can have any basic leaks fixed in no time, without paying for a roofing service.

 

Finally, simple upgrades such as installing a new rain cap can also be addressed during the summer, before the rainy season comes along. The best option would be to install a new stainless or copper rain cap that can withstand the test of the elements far more easily than a basic galvanized rain cap.
