Roof Repair Tape
Introduction to Roof Repair Tape
There are a number of various reasons that can cause damage to your roof including a severe storm, problems with flashings, weathering or just normal wear and tear. If your roof is leaky, you may be able to avoid needing to have your entire roof replaced and simply repair the damaged parts of the roof. The most important factor to repair a damaged roof would be to find the leak in the first place. This can be very difficult depending on the size of the damage done. If you can locate where inside your home the leak or leaks are found you will be able to narrow down the area of the roof you should look at.
Fixing Roof Damage
Your best solution would be to have the roof repaired as soon as you notice that it is leaky because the longer you allow it to leak the more damage that can occur. If you fix your roof while the damage is still relatively small, you will be able to save yourself a lot of money in the long run. You can decide to repair your roof yourself or hire a contractor to repair your roof for you. If your roof is still under warranty, you will want to call your contractor and demand that they come back and do the necessary repairs to your roof. You do not want to fix the roof yourself if it is still under warranty because it may cause you to lose your warranty.
The most important factor in repairing your roof is to locate the leak and determine the extent of the damage that needs to be repaired. This will help you or your contractor decide which of the various roof repair methods are right for fixing your roof. If the damage is not too extensive and a repair can be done without the need to replace your entire roof using roof repair tape may be the answer. This heavy-duty roof repair tape may be able to fix the leak and prevent further damage to your roof.
Using Roof Repair Tape
Roof repair tape can be used to fix flat or pitched roofs with leaks in them, as well as, cracked or broken roof tiles and slate. Roof repair tape is easy to use because it requires very little prep done to the area of the roof before applying it to the roof. There is no primer required, the only thing that needs to be done before applying the roof repair tape is to thoroughly clean the surface and any lose material should be removed. The roof repair tape is self-adhesive so there is no gluing necessary as the tape just sticks onto the roof.
Roof repair tape is waterproof and creates a soled seal to successfully fix your leaky roof. This seal is permanent and long-lasting and can adequately repair your roof for many years to come. The roof repair tape will bond to almost all roofing and building surfaces and there is even double sided roof repair tape available when you need to work with two protective layers. The repair tape will offer UV protections and can be painted to match right in with the colour of your roof.
