After months of snow, ice, and freezing temperatures, spring is the season your roof has been waiting for — and the perfect time for a professional inspection. Whether you’re dealing with winter wear and tear or preparing for the spring storm season, getting ahead of roofing issues now can save you time, stress, and money later.
At A+ Roofing, we help homeowners across Cincinnati stay ahead of costly repairs with reliable roof inspections, expert advice, and honest recommendations. Here’s why spring is the ideal season to schedule yours.
1. Spot Winter Damage Before It Spreads
Winter weather is brutal on roofs — especially in the Midwest. Between heavy snow loads, icy buildup, and wind-driven freeze-thaw cycles, your roof could be hiding damage you haven’t even noticed yet.
Here are some of the most common post-winter issues:
- Ice dam damage: Melting snow can back up under shingles, leading to leaks and water stains.
- Cracked or missing shingles: Freezing temps can cause shingles to become brittle or fall off completely.
- Flashing and sealant failure: Constant temperature changes can cause metal flashing and sealants to pull away from chimneys, skylights, and vents.
- Hidden leaks: Water damage in attics or ceilings might not show until well after the initial leak.
Catching these early in the season gives you the upper hand before they develop into major (and expensive) issues.
2. Beat the Summer Rush and Book on Your Schedule
Spring is a sweet spot when it comes to scheduling roof work. Here’s why:
- Roofers aren’t fully booked yet, so you have more flexibility when choosing a time that works for you.
- Temperatures are ideal for roofing inspections and repairs, which means projects can be completed quickly and efficiently.
- You avoid the late spring and early summer rush, when storms hit, emergency calls spike, and appointments book up fast.
By scheduling your roof inspection now, you can plan ahead, address problems calmly, and potentially avoid wait times later in the season.
3. Spring Storms Can Reveal Weak Spots
April showers don’t just bring flowers — they bring wind, hail, and water infiltration too. Cincinnati weather can shift fast this time of year, and a compromised roof may not stand up to spring storms.
Common issues that spring storms expose include:
- Leaks in aging roofs
- Water pooling on flat roof systems
- Loose or flying shingles in high winds
- Gutter backup from debris
An inspection in early spring means your roof will be storm-ready, helping you prevent interior water damage and giving you peace of mind when the weather acts up.
