How to Protect Your Roof Years After Installation

A quality roof contractor should be making sure your roof provides peace of mind over the long-term. At A.M. Sun Solar + Roofing, we believe real protection doesn’t stop at installation. 

That’s why every new asphalt shingle roof we install includes our built-in “You’re Always Covered” Maintenance Plan—a proactive, long-term service that helps your roof last longer, perform better, and avoid costly surprises.

Here’s how it works and why it’s become a favorite for San Luis Obispo County homeowners.

Year 1: A Post-Install Checkup 

Twelve months after your roof is installed, we return for a full inspection. This isn’t just a courtesy call; it’s a full, hands-on review of your entire roofing system.

We look for:

  • Any signs of lifted, cracked, or missing shingles
  • Issues with flashing or roof penetrations
  • Gutter and downspout performance

Think of it as preventative maintenance. Odds are there won’t be anything wrong. However, a thorough inspection one year after installation can help keep any potential damages from forming.

Year 5: Midlife Maintenance That Makes a Difference

Five years in, your roof has taken a beating from SLO’s warm summers, foggy mornings, and stormy winters. That’s when we come back with a deeper inspection and tune-up.

We cover everything from the first inspection, plus:

  • Reseal pipe jacks and exposed fasteners if needed
  • Evaluate shingle wear and granule loss
  • Identify risks that could become future leaks

It’s all about proactive care, making sure everything is still sealed, secured, and performing like day one, so you can avoid future issues before they start.

Why Ongoing Roof Care Is Smart (And Saves You Money)

Even the strongest roofs need occasional care to stay that way. A proper maintenance plan helps reinforce your roof’s longevity—refreshing sealants, checking wear, and making sure everything remains in peak condition.

Without proper inspections, you could be looking at very costly repairs down the road. Our goal is to provide the highest level of service to all of our Central Coast customers so they can enjoy their new roofs with peace of mind. 

Our maintenance plans aren’t additional upcharges. They’re baked right into every job we complete. When we say, “With Us, You’re Always Covered,” we mean it.
