Here are helpful tips on reducing the risk of fire residential roofing systems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clean Your Chimney Regularly<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you have a fireplace, keeping it clean is essential in preventing roof fires. Creosote is a black or dark brown flammable tar that forms inside the chimney over time. It comes from wood smoke on the chimney walls, especially during the cooler months when you use your fireplace more. A spark will easily ignite this combustible layer of material, making regular chimney cleaning even more important. Experts suggest getting a chimney cleaning service at least once a year before the heating season begins.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Address Roof Leaks Immediately<\/span><\/h2>\n

Keep in mind that water damage is a possible fire hazard, so be sure to address roof leaks immediately. Also, hire an experienced contractor to take care of this problem for you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Invest in a Class A-Rated Materials<\/span><\/h2>\n
