September 22 marked the first day of fall. However, the perfect time for an Orange County roof repair is now! In Orange County, Fall brings the ideal conditions for Orange County roof repair materials and roofers. So, no matter if you need a flat roof repair, shingle roof repair, or tile roof repair, find out 3 reasons Fall remains the best season for roof repair or replacement.
Ideal Conditions for Orange County Shingle Roofs
Composition shingles continue to be the most popular type of roofing in the United States. California homeowners love shingle roofs. They offer a lightweight alternative and a price point far below clay or concrete tile shingles. If you have a shingle roof and need repairs, act now.
Fall provides the ideal conditions to repair or replace an asphalt roof in Orange County. That’s because Fall conditions offer the optimal conditions for shingle adhesion.
The adhesive on your shingles needs warmth to soften and stick to your other shingles. Our warm Fall temperatures fit the bill. In the cooler Winter months, those shingles get brittle and break.
In addition, the more humid conditions found in Winter and Spring interfere with shingle adhesion. Finally, unless the Santa Anas blow into the Santa Ana River basin, wind conditions remain calm in Fall. So, you never worry about the wind blowing against the shingle and lifting it before the adhesive sets.
Ideal Conditions for Roofers and Roof Materials
Mild conditions are great for roofers and roofing materials. The likelihood of damage to materials goes down with the temperature and humidity.
A less-than-blazing sun means workers need fewer breaks and the work finishes faster. That’s because when the sun blazes, workers get too hot, and they need frequent breaks to rehydrate and drop their core body temperature. At the same time, when composition shingles get too hot, they become too flexible, bend easily, and break as a result.
By November, Orange County daytime highs average 75 degrees, making it perfect for working on the roof. Also, October and November clock in as relatively dry months. They average only 1 or 2 days of rain. By December, rain chances pick up and so do the chances of your roof work being interrupted by weather. Fall provides the perfect environment for flat roof repairs as well. That’s because Fall brings the ideal temperatures and humidity to cure and bond flat roof coatings.
