Issues with Poor Attic Ventilation

Did you know that poor attic ventilation can damage your roof?

When we think of roof damage, we usually conjure up images of heavy snow, hail, ice, and wind—things that cause damage from the outside. But did you know that poor attic ventilation can wreak havoc from the inside? 

Without proper ventilation, your attic can collect excess moisture. Excess moisture can come from
buildups of rain, ice, and snow. This can cause the structural parts of your attic to rust or rot, which creates leaks. Leaks weaken the structure of your attic and your roof. Moisture buildup also causes mold to grow, which can not only affect and deteriorates the structure of your roof, it can make the air in your home unhealthy.
