Winterizing Your Home

These winterization tips from Shiner Roofing, Siding and Windows show you how easy it is to reduce your energy use at home and save money on your energy bills.

Protect Your Roof

Protect your roof by having it inspected regularly for leaks, damage or missing shingles. The sooner the problem areas are identified the less expensive the repairs.

Trim weak branches on trees that surround your home. These can cause costly roof repairs or even complete roof replacement.

If you are having your roof replaced, consider metal roofing. Metal roofs reflect solar energy, which allow the roof surfaces to remain cooler. This prevents heat from transferring into your home—allowing for less work by the A/C unit and therefore lower energy bills.

Check Your Gutters

Properly maintaining your gutter system is essential to protecting your home. Regular gutter cleaning should be performed to prevent water overflow. Overflow from clogged gutters can cause structural damage to your home from the roof to your basement.

Consider having a LeafX^® covered gutter protection system from Shiner Roofing, Siding and Windows installed to keep leaves, pine needles, and other debris out. For more information visit ShinerRoofing.com/LeafX.
