Living in Pompano Beach means sunshine, salty air — and the occasional tropical storm. That’s why one of the most important ways to protect your home is by staying proactive with roof inspections. But how often should you actually inspect your roof?
🔍 At Least Twice a Year
Experts recommend inspecting your roof at least twice a year — once in the spring and once in the fall. This helps you spot wear and tear from seasonal weather changes before they turn into expensive repairs.
🌴 After Every Major Storm
In South Florida, hurricane season is no joke. After a heavy rain, strong winds, or a tropical storm, it's a smart move to give your roof a closer look (or have a professional do it). Even if damage isn't visible from the ground, missing shingles, loose flashing, or small leaks can cause big problems later.
👀 What to Look For
Here are a few signs that it’s time to call Bentley Roofing:
Curling, cracked, or missing shingles
Discoloration or water stains on ceilings
Granules in your gutters
Sagging or soft spots in the roof
Mold, mildew, or algae growth
