The Importance of Regular Roof Inspections in Vancouver’s Rainy Climate


5 Tips for a Roof Inspection | AHS


In Vancouver and the surrounding areas like Burnaby, Coquitlam, West Vancouver, and North Vancouver, our wet coastal weather is both a blessing and a curse. While the rain keeps our city lush and green, it also takes a toll on our homes — especially the roof.


Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements. Over time, constant exposure to rain, wind, moss, and UV rays weakens even the best materials. That’s why regular roof inspections are critical to protecting your home and saving thousands in future repairs.




Why Roof Inspections Matter


Roofs don’t fail overnight — damage builds gradually. Missing shingles, minor leaks, or blocked gutters can go unnoticed until they cause major water damage. With Vancouver’s high rainfall, moisture can easily seep into wood structures, leading to rot and mold.


A professional inspection checks for:




  • Loose or damaged shingles




  • Worn flashing around vents and chimneys




  • Gutter blockages




  • Signs of water intrusion or mold




  • Structural weaknesses




By catching these early, you prevent costly roof replacements or interior water damage later on.




How Often Should You Inspect Your Roof?


In Vancouver’s climate, Aftermath Contracting recommends inspecting your roof at least once per year — ideally in the spring or early fall. If your roof is over 10 years old, consider twice-a-year inspections.


Also schedule a check after major storms or wind events. The faster you identify issues, the easier and cheaper they are to fix.
