Why Is Proper Ventilation So Important for Your Attic?

Contents

Attic ventilation doesn’t really get much attention from most homeowners, and it’s easy to see why. If you plan to renovate your home, you’re most likely to look first at the areas that are most urgent, such as your Elmhurst roofing shingles, siding or kitchen area. The attic is typically a forgotten place where you put most of your old items and memorabilia that you don’t really have a place for. However, ignoring your attic can be a recipe for disaster that will affect your entire home.

 

When your attic insulation or ventilation is bad, you’ll find that there are a few different things that could happen:

 

  • Summer can become very hot, as your attic heats up and your AC isn’t capable of fending off the extra heat.
  • In humid areas, mold buildup is pretty common, and if left untended to, it can spread throughout your home.
  • Condensation can lead to water damage and structural damage to your roof’s internal structure as well as your walls.

 

Most experts will argue that attic ventilation is extremely essential not only to your attic and your roof but to the overall integrity of your entire home. If you ever plan to sell your home, not having proper ventilation in the attic can cost you quite a lot, and you might reach the closing table either having to back out of an poor deal or having to accept a much lower price than the one you initially wanted.

Professional, Knowledgeable, and stress free is how I would describe my experience with Roof One. From first call, a representative actually answers the phone with a friendly welcome. Jason was prompt and quick to come out and give a detailed consultation. Antonio’s crew was amazing! Not only were they on time, but a few minutes early. They made sure to walk me through the process and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Scott helped work with my insurance adjuster and went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied. Bill and Sandra in the office treated me like family and Steve, the owner, was very kind and welcomed me to the Roof One family. Phenomenal Job Roof One, my family and I couldn’t be happier - Thank you!

From the beginning to the end, Roof one really impressed me regarding their professionalism when roofing my house. In particular Steve and Mark managed this job wonderfully. The crew they sent over did such a wonderful quality job and made sure my property was free of nails and debris. I would definitely hire this company for a roof job. Very straight forward with their prices and options. I was also grateful they hooked up vent fans and provided a gorgeous flashing for my large chimney. Good job guys! Wish there were more contractors like you!
