We hear from perspective clients all the time that ask the question, “When is the best time for me to have roof maintenance performed?” We always emphatically answer, “Right Now!”

It’s true, in the current weather we cannot perform our Dennco roof treatment, however when the weather clears up and warms up we have the ability to catch up extremely fast. Aside from treating, now is the perfect time to get your minor and major roof repairs completed along with moss and debris cleaned off your roof. From December to May, in the Greater Portland area, we see the majority of the 40+ inches of rain that hits our rooftops. Wouldn’t you like to know that your roof has the ability to withstand the rain now instead of when it’s an emergency? We think so too.

We offer Portland’s only no-growth, no-leak guarantee and your warranties begin after the work is completed. That way you can ensure you roof won’t leak through the winter months and then ensure your roof stays moss and algae free once mother nature decides to cooperate. The first step to ensuring your roof is leak free is to give us a call, 503-925-0125, or fill out a roof estimate request form. After that, our roof consultants will provide you with our non-invasive techniques to ensure your roof looks good, works right and lasts longer. When is the right time to get your roof inspected? Now, because you never know when a problem can occur.

Moss, black fungus, lichen (LIKE-en), bird do-do, cat do-do, raccoon do-do, decaying leaves, footballs, whiffle balls, badmitton shuttlecocks, slimy green algae, fir needles, pinecones, and all sortsa nuts.

The holiday season is finally over and many people are still feeling a hangover effect from them. Too much good food, too much family time, and too much traveling; all good problems to have! The New Years resolutions are in and now is when we can start validating if they’re going to come to fruition or not. If you decorated your home for the holiday season, with a tree, lights, and more, it’s time you start thinking about how to dismantle your festive creations. After all, the only accepted place that has lights up year-round is Las Vegas. We’ve found some pretty interesting things when we ladder up (see above) and we’re sure you’ll find a few strange things too.

In 2011, we’ve already received 3.75 inches of rainfall (according to USGS) in Portland of the expected 40+ inches we annually receive. All that rain has been beating down on the nooks and crannies of your roof without regard for the healthiness of your roof. While you’re up on your roof, dismantling Santa and his reindeer, take a look at your roof. Do you notice anything different compared to the last time your laddered to its peak?

Moss is only a visual queue that your roof is experiencing problems. Start off 2011 being proactive rather than reactive to keep your family and home safe. Roof Life of Oregon performs free roof inspections to help give homeowners the peace of mind they need. No one likes having roof maintenance performed on their home, but isn’t it better if its on your terms rather than mother nature’s?

The holiday’s are in full swing and Christmas will be here next week. Have you finished all of your shopping? Is the house decorated with your tree and stockings? Did you get your holiday lights up yet? For those of you that aren’t in the procrastination business you owe yourself a congratulations!

When you were up on your roof, did you notice anything unusual? Does anything look worn out or in need of some holiday cheer? We understand that your roof is the last thing you want to be thinking about right now, which is why we provide free inspections. While you’re spending quality family time, or picking up last minute gifts, one of our roof consultants will be laddering up to the tip-top of your roof and providing you with a detailed report upon their descent.

A simple call [503-925-0125] or completion of our roof maintenance form will give you the peace of mind you need this holiday season.

When we’re not on roofs we’re out enjoying everything Portland has to offer during the holiday season. Here’s a list of some of our favorite holiday light displays that we’d recommend:
