Latest El Niño Forecast: Is Your Roof Ready for the Beating?

The Yancey Family, Serving Sacramento Since 1888

With spring in full swing and summer in the offing, everybody is in for some dose of sunshine. California, however, is getting too much of it as drought is affecting most areas in the state. Now, climate scientists disclosed that there is a great possibility the country may experience El Niño this year, which should set both commercial and residential property owners’ alarm bells ringing.

Here, in part, is the National Geographic report about the not-so-pleasant weather forecast:

The odds are in El Niño’s favor. The US Climate Prediction Center forecasts a greater than 50 percent chance that the climate-disrupting phenomenon could be upon us as early as this summer, with a two-in-three chance we’ll be welcoming it by winter. Fingers are crossed in drought-ridden California, where a strong El Nino could increase rain and snowfall.

Home and commercial property owners who wish to protect their properties against the dire effects of this possible inclement weather are encouraged to pay particular attention to their roofing systems. Since roofs and gutters are among the initial defenses of structures, they will take a lot of the brunt of the forecasted heavy rain and snow this spring. Thus, if they are not equipped to carry the load, they must be prepped in time.

If you’re looking for the best protection for your home, you have to contact a professional roofer. Yancey Home Improvements provides top-quality roofing in Rocklin, CA and the surrounding areas.

“I need a total bathroom remodel, and everyone at Yancey has been a delight to work with. All my questions have been answered, the choices of materials were abundant, and Scott guided us expertly through the process one step at a time. I would highly recommend them!”

Laura Powell

“Yancey was awesome to work with. My estimator was Brian Speaks, and he made the entire experience simple and enjoyable for us. There was no high pressure sales, and Brian went out of his way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and needed. His pricing was fair, and he helped us get financing right on the spot. If I would provide more than 5 stars, I would.”

Ryan Calderwood

“Tommy was very helpful in explaining the roofing process and itemizing the pricing. He was upfront and honest about policy and interpreting the contract for my mother and I. We are a house full of women and we are always worried about being taken advantage of price-wise but we were not treated that way. Thank you for the excellent service and stunning new roof!”

Caroline H

“I chose Yancey for my reroof because of their business longevity. They've run into every situation imaginable and Brian addressed these concerns in the contract. Being told in advance is an explanation, being told after the fact is an excuse. They gave no excuses. The team working was always on time and did exceptional quality work with dry rot repair. The roof looks great and I expect it to work well for years to come.”
