Spring Roof Checklist for Firestone Homeowners

Colorado winters can be hard on a roof, and spring brings the start of hail season. A quick check each spring helps Firestone homeowners catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

Your spring checklist

• Look for missing, cracked or lifted shingles from the ground with binoculars

• Clean out gutters and downspouts so spring rain drains away from your home

• Check flashing around chimneys, skylights and vents for gaps or rust

• Look in the attic for water stains, damp insulation or daylight through the boards

• Trim tree branches that hang over or rub against the roof

• Check soffits and fascia for rot or damage from ice and snow

Why spring matters

Freeze-and-thaw cycles over the winter can loosen shingles and open small gaps. If those aren't fixed before hail and summer storms arrive, a minor issue can turn into a leak.

Leave the climbing to us

Please don't walk on your roof yourself. It's easy to slip, and it's easy to damage shingles without meaning to. A professional inspection is free with Makers, and we'll send you photos of anything we find.
