Your roof is one of the most important construction pieces of your home. Your roof protects your entire home from the outdoor elements, and without a quality roof, your home is susceptible to a lot of damage. Keeping your roof maintained is essential for ensuring your home stays in great shape. Today, our Lake of the Ozarks roofing company has some 3 common roofing problems to watch out for and what to do about them.  Punctures & Holes  There are a variety of things that can puncture your roof.

Some companies offer  free roof inspections at the Lake of the Ozarks , which can help you determine if your roof...

Choosing a color for your new roof at the Lake of the Ozarks is not only a necessary, but an exciting element to add to your new home. There are several things to keep in mind when choosing a color for your roof, and Above & Beyond Roofing is here to help. We’ve put together a checklist of questions to ask yourself before you settle on your new roof’s color. 1. What is the climate like where I live? This may seem like an off-topic question, but it can be a major factor when it comes to choosing a roofing color. Temperatures during the summer months at the Lake of the Ozarks can soar, and you’ll want to keep this in mind.

Also consider whether your home is positioned in the shade, in the sun, or both. The color of your roof wil...

You've been putting off the "honeydo" list for the entire summer and now you're out of excuses! Fortunately, the best roofing company at Lake of the Ozarks has the perfect project to work on as the temperature drops and the season changes. Fall is the best time for Home Improvement at Lake of the Ozarks . Let's take a look at 5 reasons fall is the right time to get new siding. Photo Courtesy of  FunLake.com 1. Fall is the Perfect Temperature for New Siding An important feature of siding is its ability to withstand wide variations of weather. When applying it however, there are some key things that make fall the right time for this project. During the winter, the temperature drops and that causes the vinyl siding to stiffen up- making it incredibly difficult to manipulate. Conversely, when the summertime heat hits, vinyl expands, making it nearly impossible to estimate the correct amount of siding a project needs. When applied during the winter, it ...

While you should watch out for major weather events, something as simple as a thunderstorm can also affect an already faulty roof. Spring is here and has brought this rainy weather along with it. Here are some facts about Thunderstorms and how you can protect your Lake of the Ozarks roof  from further damage this spring! What is a Thunderstorm?  Thunderstorms are produced by a cumulonimbus cloud, usually producing gusty winds, heavy rain and sometimes hail. The basic ingredients used to make a thunderstorm are moisture, unstable air and lift. You need moisture to form clouds and rain, unstable air that is relatively warm and can rise rapidly, and you need lift from either fronts, sea breezes or mountains. Here are some fun facts about thunderstorms: Thunderstorms can occur year-round at all hours, but are most likely to occur in spring and summer during the afternoon and evening hours.   It is estimated that around 1,800 thunderstorms occur across our plan...

Hail can happen anytime of the year, but it's most prevalent in the Northern Hemisphere during Spring.  This is when the updrafts and downdrafts of thunderstorms are the most severe, and when most hailstorms can occur.  Hail starts as a frozen raindrop or ice crystal and can grow to various sizes depending on how many up and down trips it makes in a storm.  Hailstones are generally anywhere from the size of a pea to that of a grapefruit. A problem happens with your roof when these larger hailstones come crashing to the ground and can tear up your roof, shingles, and gutters.  It's very important if you experience a hailstorm that you have a roofing professional at the Lake of the Ozarks inspect the roof for damage.  If you don't have the roof looked at, you can experience further serious issues when the rain comes again.  If weather becomes an issue this year at the lake, call the best roofers at the Lake of the Ozarks to inspect your roof! Here ar...
