Trick or Treat: When Small Roofing Issues Turn into Scary Surprises

This Halloween season, not all the “tricks” come from ghosts and goblins — some come from right above your head! Your roof may look fine from the ground, but even small issues like missing shingles or loose flashing can turn into scary surprises if left unchecked.

At Elite Roof & Solar, we’re here to help homeowners separate the tricks from the treats when it comes to roof care. Here’s what to watch for this fall:

Trick or Treat #1: Missing Shingles

Trick: One or two missing shingles might not seem like a big deal, but they create the perfect opening for water to sneak in and cause leaks.

Treat: A quick repair or shingle replacement from Elite Roof & Solar keeps your home protected — no leaks, no worries, and no spooky surprises.

Trick or Treat #2: Clogged Gutters

Trick: Autumn leaves might look pretty, but when they clog your gutters, they can cause water to back up and damage your roof, siding, and foundation.

Treat: Keeping gutters clear (or upgrading to seamless gutters) ensures water flows freely and your home stays safe — now that’s a treat!

Trick or Treat #3: Skipping Fall Roof Inspections

Trick: Out of sight, out of mind — until winter weather rolls in and exposes hidden problems. Small cracks, loose flashing, and worn sealant can turn into expensive repairs.

Treat: Schedule a professional inspection with Elite Roof & Solar this fall to make sure your roof is ready for the colder months ahead.
