Roof Maintenance for San Diego
Owner’s Roof Maintenance: What You Can Do Yourself
- Visual Inspections: Walk around your property after strong winds or storms. Look for missing or damaged shingles, debris buildup, or signs of sagging.
- Clean Gutters and Downspouts: Clogged gutters can cause water to back up under your roof. Clean them at least twice a year to prevent leaks and water damage.
- Trim Overhanging Trees: Trees that drop leaves or branches on the roof can cause moisture retention, mold, and physical damage. Keep branches trimmed and clear.
- Check for Moss or Algae Growth: Particularly in shaded or coastal areas, moss can lift shingles and trap moisture. Use a moss treatment if needed.
- Inspect Ceilings and Attic Spaces: Water stains, mold, or musty odors indoors can be signs of a roof leak.

Why Roof Maintenance Is Essential in San Diego County
San Diego’s unique climate—sunny most of the year, with bursts of heavy rain during the winter months—can place significant stress on your roof.

TWM Roofing offers comprehensive roof maintenance for a wide range of property types. Here’s what our expert service typically includes:
1. Thorough Roof Inspections
- We inspect every component of the roofing system, including shingles, tiles, flat roof membranes, underlayment, flashing, and gutters.

- Our trained inspectors look for signs of wear, structural movement, animal damage, and early-stage water intrusion.
2. Debris Removal & Surface Cleaning
- We remove branches, leaves, and debris from the roof surface and drainage systems.
- For flat roofs, we pay extra attention to ponding water and clogged scuppers or drains.
3. Gutter & Drain Maintenance

- We also inspect for corrosion or structural deterioration in metal drainage components.
4. Flashing & Sealant Checks
- Flashing and roof penetrations are common sources of leaks.
- We check all seals around skylights, chimneys, vents, and HVAC units and re-caulk or reseal as needed.
5. Shingle, Tile, or Membrane Repair
- We repair or replace any damaged roofing materials.
- For tile roofs, we reset loose tiles and replace broken ones with perfect matches.
- On flat roofs, we inspect seams and edges for lifting and reseal vulnerable areas.

- We ensure ridge vents, attic fans, and soffit vents are operating effectively.
