Roof Longevity

At Sun Valley Exteriors, we truly believe in the power of knowledge.  The foundation and success of our company is highly credited to the knowledge and experience that our expertise has taught us throughout the years. We are committed to a standard of excellence in all that we do. As one of the top leading roofing, siding, and gutters contractors nationwide, we understand that it is our priority to spread the knowledge about how homeowners can protect their greatest investment and preserve the integrity of their exterior home systems, i.e. roof, siding, gutters, etc.

Occasionally, we come across articles that we feel will be beneficial to our readers. John D’Annunzio has written a series of articles for FacilitiesNet discussing factors that determine roof longevity. Below is a brief description and link to each article.

Part 1: Proper Design Improves Roof Longevity

This first article discusses key components to proper design that include wind uplift calculations, drainage design, thermal factors, perimeter edge design, and existing building conditions. It also discusses the selection of materials and systems that are compatible with existing building conditions. Proper design should always focus on providing a long-term roofing system.

Part 2: Focus On Roofing Materials And Workmanship To Improve Longevity

The second installment explains that not all roof materials are the same and not all materials are suitable for all buildings. Applied materials should be new, free of all excess moisture, and manufactured in compliance with ASTM standards. Proper material storage at the project site is also required.

In addition, the roof is one of the only major building components that is partially or fully constructed on-site. A large percentage of premature roof failures occur due to improper workmanship.

Part 3: How Weather And Maintenance Impact Roof Longevity

Finally, the third article describes how applications of roofing materials in conditions not suitable to the material’s constraints (too hot, too cold, in wet weather) will contribute to premature failure.

No matter the roof type, all roofs require a certain level of attention. Roofs are exposed to the elements 24 hours a day, every day of the year. One of the most important reasons to implement an annual roof maintenance program is to extend the service life of the existing roof system.

That was one HAIL of a storm...

The following article was reported by KPHO.com on October 7, 2010. Click here to be re-directed to the article.

PHOENIX -- Tuesday’s storm in the valley is going into the record books as producing some of the largest hail ever recorded in the state of Arizona.

According to National Weather Service records, the tennis ball-size hail -- 2.5 inches in diameter -- that fell Tuesday in Scottsdale is tied for the 10th largest hail ever reported in Arizona.

It’s also the second largest hail ever reported in Maricopa County, topped only by a hailstone measuring 2.75 inches in diameter that fell on North Cave Creek in 1990.

This is also only the second time that tennis-ball or larger hail has been reported in Maricopa County.
