4 Reasons to Be Thankful You Have a Roof Over Your Head

You’ve probably heard people express how they’re thankful to have a roof over their heads, and perhaps you’ve just considered it a figure of speech. In reality, there are a lot of reasons you should be thankful for that roof over your head. It doesn’t just signify the fact you live in a home. The following are four additional reasons to be thankful for your roof.

  1. Home Value

Did you know the appearance of a new roof makes the entire home look newer? Those fresh shingles and the comfort of knowing a new home buyer won’t have to replace the roof any time soon can make the value of your home rise. Whether you’re looking to sell or just want to increase the value of your home, a new roof can help you out.

  1. Protection Against Weather

When your roof is properly repaired and maintained, it serves as protection against the weather. It keeps the cold air out during winter and blocks the heat from penetrating during summer. It acts as a barrier between your furnishings and the rain and stops the sun from fading everything inside.

  1. Energy Efficiency

Depending on the type of roof you have installed, maintenance costs can be cut, and energy costs can be reduced. A properly insulated roof will help ensure the perfect temperatures inside your home don’t literally go through the roof, causing your HVAC system to work overtime. Instead, the roof can help your home stay at a comfortable temperature with minimal effort by the HVAC system.

  1. Prevention of Mold and Mildew

Roofs need to be properly ventilated so moisture cannot thrive inside your home. Condensation that builds up will typically turn into mold and mildew, which are both common causes of a variety of health issues. Your roof ventilation system can help to avoid such issues.
