We may still be within the realms of winter, but as the days slowly start getting longer and the sun begins to show its face once more, it's clear that the warmer months are just around the corner. There's no better time than now to start preparing your home and garden for summer and making sure that any damage your property sustained throughout the harsh winter months has been taken care of. This is particularly important for your roofing, as this is the part of your home that is most exposed to the elements.
Here we share our top tips for preparing your roof for summer:
After months of heavy rainfall and blustering winds, your gutters are likely looking worse for wear. Whether they're full of decaying leaves from neighbouring trees or they've started to leak, it's important to use the spring months to inspect and repair them as necessary. A broken or faulty gutter won't collect and reroute rainwater as it's designed to, which could see your roof sustain water damage.
Additionally, if your gutters are full of debris, they may become increasingly attractive to birds and squirrels looking to make a nest for spring. While this may sound like a great way to attract more wildlife to your local area, small animals can cause a significant amount of damage to your roof. For this reason, it's imperative to tidy your gutters before the summer comes around.
If your roof has suffered throughout the winter months, you may expect to find some missing tiles or shingles. Although this may not seem very pressing at first, missing tiles can do more than just damage your home's kerb appeal. As a result of slipped roof tiles or shingles, moisture may be able to seep into your property and cause a variety of problems inside.
From damaged insulation to pooling water in your upstairs rooms, there is a long list of problems that can occur from a moisture build-up. And, with warm weather just around the corner, issues such as condensation and mould may become more prevalent. Prevent this from happening by making sure that your roof tiles are in place as they should be.
If you haven't considered the benefits of waterproof roof coatings, now is certainly time to do so. There are many reasons why you should consider coating your roof in time for summer, one being the fact that waterproof coatings can keep your roof cool even in hot weather. This makes investing in a roof coating a great way to limit the number of times you have to resort to your home's air conditioning solutions through summer and, as a result, help you cut the energy bills you're paying out for.
As they're waterproof, roof coatings can also protect your home against heavy rainfall. While levels of rainfall tend to lessen during the summer (although, not necessarily in Scotland!), it's still advisable to keep your roof protected against the elements throughout the year. By taking steps to ensure your roof is in the best possible condition for summer, you'll also minimise the risk of damage occurring during the winter months, too.

Excellent all round service. Very professional and meticulous job. Neighbours extremely impressed with the look of our house - (night & day!!) So impressed with everything - great job - Brian & Scott are great workers - thank you.
From the initial contact with Peter the surveyor to Barry and Bob who carried out the work I had complete confidence that the workmanship would be of a high standard. I was not disappointed.
It was a pleasure to have 2 workmen arriving bright & cheery every morning at the specified time. Ryan & Martin were very professional and kept us informed at every stage. Nothing was any bother for them. We would certainly recommend them and your company to family and friends. Passers by have actually commented on the quality of the work.
As far as can be seen at the moment we are extremely pleased with all we have had done. It will take a little time to adjust to it all and see how it wears. We trust that all will be well and the warranty will cover all. Your 2 workmen are a real credit to your company.
Brian and Scott went well over what I expected and were so willing to help me out over anything I asked. If I ever were to get Kingdom Coatings to do additional work, I would ask for them. Thank you.
A very professional company who know exactly what is required to produce a top class job. Their staff are equally professional and work unsupervised to give the client exactly what they are looking for.
The workers explained what was required before starting, making sure we understood the work that was to be carried out. They showed much respect to us as customers. Overall delighted with the work and attitude to those of us who are older and in need of guidance.

Great staff, they just came and got on with the job. No messing about. Very hard working. The lady in the office was great at keeping us informed with what was happening. Overall a good experience. (Walls)
The installers were hard working and polite with a sense of humour. Management and office staff could not be faulted either for going out their way to provide a safe service.
The two men were very polite and have done a great job. You hear so many stories about companies who come to your door trying to sell you things. From Mandy who came to give us a quote to the two lads who did the job, cannot fault them. Very professional.
We have found the service from your company to be of a very high standard and would advise anyone we know to use your company. Both men were extremely polite and helpful. Thank you.

I’m extremely pleased with the work carried out at my house. Greg and Barry are an excellent team. They worked hard the day my roof was cleaned – the weather was baltic but it didn’t phase them. A job well done indeed.
