Protecting your Home from Virginia Weather:

Fairfax has a humid subtropical climate, meaning it truly has four seasons. This is important with roofing in Northern Virginia, as it will cause problems for roofs in every season.

• Summer: Heavy thunderstorms in Fairfax can cause major damage to roofs from heavy rain, wind, and thunder. These storms can cause loose and broken shingles, cracks, and damaged flashing. 
• Fall: Fall storms can expose weak spots created throughout the Summer in roofs. When it rains heavily in the summer, it can cause loose shingles in the Fall, causing the perfect storm for a new roof when the wind starts to blow hard. 
• Winter: Heavy snowfall can cause snow to melt on warmer parts of roofs and refreeze near the edges. If you still have not had your roof repaired by now, the misplaced shingles from the fall are now creating major problems with the snowfall and freezing. 
• Spring: Increased storm activity and strong winds cause the already damaged roof from Winter. In addition, the Winter freeze starts to defrost on the warm days, allowing water to get into those gaps. Just like cracks in sidewalks, the water in these gaps freezes, expands, defrost over and over until you have massive holes throughout your roof. 

Preventing Costly Roof Repairs:

While Fairfax weather can cause many problems, if you stay on top of the roofing repairs, you can avoid major repairs or costly roof replacements. By identifying minor issues early on, you can avoid full roof replacement and manage to just pay for small upkeep and repairs. The above weather outlines a series of events that often occur in Fairfax roofs. The summer creates problems, and the following seasons slowly create bigger and bigger ones. If you act as soon as problems occur, you can save thousands of dollars in roof repairs and damage.
