Common Roof Noises & How We Can Help

Common Roof Noises & How We Can Help

A roof needs to be functional, and with function comes protection from the elements. If you’re beginning to notice new sounds coming from your roof, we’re here to help. In this guide, we’ll go over some of the most common roof noises and let you know how we can help. Determining what is causing these roof noises can help you rest easy knowing there’s a viable solution to resolve these common roof noises.

What May Be Causing Your Roof to Make Noises?

Your roof may be making noises for many reasons. Here are some of the most common reasons ranging from environmental factors, to infrastructure issues, to wildlife prancing around your rooftop throughout the night.

Odd Sounds Throughout the Night

As the night progresses, temperatures typically drop by twenty degrees or more. This fluctuation in temperature may cause a contraction effect to take place as materials in your roof adjust accordingly. These expansions and contractions may make strange noises throughout the night. This is usually not something to worry about too much. If it becomes a consistent issue, or even worsens, contact us and we’ll be sure to schedule a time to visit your home as soon as possible.

Thumping or Tapping Noises

If you’re beginning to notice thumping or tapping noises, this could be a sign of trees or loose debris brushing up against your roof. Additionally, this could be an animal, or groups of animals, attempting to gain access to your attic area via your roof. It’s important to always maintain your roof to prevent any critters from making their way into your home.

Dripping Noises

If you’re noticing a dripping noise, you’ll want to contact us as soon as possible. This is likely water intruding into your space and accumulating over time. This could lead to detrimental mold growth if not taken care of in a prompt fashion.

Strong Rumbling or Roaring Noises

Strong rumbling or roaring noises may indicate a response to high winds, yet if you’re noticing these noises more often than not, you’re likely experiencing some form of debris brushing up against your home. If it continues to be an issue, you’ll want to have us come out and inspect what’s going on.

It’s Extremely Important to Act Fast When You Hear Strange Noises Coming from Your Roof

Strange noises can be unsettling, yet if they’re coming from your roof, you’ll want to be proactive instead of reactive. The stability and structure of your roof is so important, and if you’re noticing strange noises on a consistent basis, something is likely wrong.
