Is your Oklahoma City roof leaking? Here’s what you need to know on fixing it…

Just because Oklahoma’s spring storm season has passed does not necessarily mean you can breathe a sigh of relief when it comes to your home’s most vital element: its roof.

Whether you’re a homeowner or business owner here in the Oklahoma City Metro or surrounding area, now may be the best time to think about potential winter and fall roof leaks.

Central Oklahoma’s notorious winds, combined with the hundred-plus degree temperatures we’ve experienced in the summer of 2008 could spell for trouble when fall brings about late-year Oklahoma showers and thunderstorms.  Even the best roofs are subject to cracking, shingle slippage and water pooling that could cause water to enter your home or office.

That’s not even to speak of winter, when snow and ice, regular freezing and unfreezing of water atop your structure can turn a minor leaks into major repair issues.

If you find your property leaking, give us a call at (405) 365-6577 or request a free estimate at arrowstarroofing.com. Arrowstar Roofing & Construction has over 35 years experience in roofing, repair and maintenance in Oklahoma’s tricky climate. Single leak repairs begin at only $175, and are guaranteed through written warranties for a full year. We can also assist you with deteriorating roof flashing, replacement of vents and skylights, and even vinyl siding for equally cut-rate fees.

David Locklear, owner of Arrowstar Roofing & Construction, clarifies the importance of regular roof repair and maintenance.

“We believe the biggest problem in the roofing industry is the lack of companies stressing the importance of regular roof maintenance,” Locklear says. Regular roofing maintenance and repair, he states, has shown to prolong the lives of most roofs as much as 50 percent.

Even if your home isn’t currently leaking, you still have options for ensuring the continued integrity of your Oklahoma City property’s roof. A quarterly, biannual or annual maintenance contract through a reputable roofing company can prolong the life of your roof and provide you regular, detailed information about its status.

Arrowstar Roofing & Construction’s maintenance contracts can be negotiated for a nominal fee to include automatic quarterly, biannual or annual inspection of your residential or commercial property. Under Arrowstar’s maintenance contracts, a trained professional will come and inspect your property’s roof at the recurrence of your choice and perform a full, detailed inspection. Also included in Arrowstar’s maintenance contracts are minor repairs performed to roof drains, vents, wall and pipe flashings, and full cleaning of debris from the roof that can clog drains and gutters.

At the end of a maintenance contract inspection, Arrowstar will e-mail or deliver full written summaries and technical reports to the customer along with photos of potential problems, if any, and recommendations/estimates for additional maintenance work if required.

As a bonded and insured company with its family roots in Oklahoma, you can also trust that Arrowstar will stick by its promises. We live here. We’re Oklahomans just like you. Arrowstar Roofing & Construction will still be here when you do have a warranty or service-related issue, and generally ensure your overall satisfaction as an Arrowstar Customer.

The point, however, is that fall and winter as just as important seasons for Oklahoma roof maintenance as is the spring storm season. If your roof is leaking, or if it’s just been a while since you last checked its condition, Arrowstar advises regular maintenance and/or inspection through a qualified Oklahoma City roofing contractor to ensure the continued well-being of your home or business roof… and ultimately… all that rests beneath it.
