A roof’s lifespan depends on more than just the shingles. Ventilation plays a critical role in keeping temperatures regulated, preventing moisture buildup, and helping the roofing system perform the way it was designed to.
Poor ventilation can cause shingles to deteriorate prematurely, increase energy bills, and create moisture problems that lead to mold or wood rot. In winter, inadequate ventilation contributes to ice dams, which can force melting snow under shingles and into the home.
A properly vented attic allows heat and humidity to escape, reducing strain on the roof and improving overall comfort in the home. Homeowners who invest in proper ventilation often gain additional years of life from their roof.
ProfessioNail Roofing Inc. evaluates ventilation on every project to ensure the roofing system performs reliably through every season.
