How often should I have my heat pump serviced?

You should have your heat pump serviced at least once a year. If you use your heat pump for heating and cooling, you should service it twice annually, in the fall and the spring.

What is the life span of a heat pump?

The average life span of a heat pump is 10-15 years. Because heat pumps run year-round to heat and cool your home, they don’t always last as long as a typical heating or cooling system. However, you can extend the life span by ensuring that your unit is routinely maintained by an HVAC professional.

Common Types of Roof Damage from Storms

Lancaster’s weather is a headache for homes and businesses.

Often, the most common types of storm-related roofing damage found in Lancaster County involve:

Hail damage: Hailstones will dent or fracture shingles, dislodge flashing (those thin, metal sheets that direct water away from walls, chimneys, and similar), and puncture vulnerable roof areas. These issues often show up in open, unshielded spots.
Wind damage: Strong winds can peel back or remove shingles entirely, breaking sealant strips and leaving roof decking open to water intrusion. This is even more of an issue for higher-elevation areas or neighborhoods with meager tree coverage.
Water damage: Heavy rain or improper drainage can lead to ponding, roof leaks, and water stains in your home. Older homes frequently see water damage around chimneys, skylights, or older ventilation systems.
Debris impact: Heavy winds can knock down tree branches and scatter debris, damaging shingles, gutters, and protective flashing. We often see this in tree-lined areas where overhanging limbs are a steady threat.

We strongly oppose blanket jobs and cookie-cutter fixes; your roof needs focused, full attention after a storm. That’s why we offer meticulous, free inspections to determine exactly what’s wrong and how to fix it ASAP. If the damage is isolated, we’ll focus on repairing specific shingles or segments of roofing. If the damage is widespread, we’ll recommend a full replacement if it’s truly the smartest and most cost-effective solution.

Insurance can be annoying, but we’ll help handle the details so you’re not stuck navigating it on your own.

FAQs

Does homeowners insurance cover roofing damaged by a storm?

Most of the time, yes. If the damage was sudden and caused by wind, hail, or falling debris, your policy likely covers it — but every policy is different. That’s why we help you review the details and work with your insurance adjuster to get things moving.

How much storm damage does a roof need to be replaced?

It depends on the extent and location of the damage. If it’s widespread or affects the structural integrity of the roof, a replacement may be the safest option, but we’ll only recommend that if repairs aren’t viable.
