Roofs in Silsbee: what to know
Homes include mid-century wood-frame and brick houses, rural homes on acreage and manufactured homes. Tall pines and hardwoods surround most properties.
Falling trees and limbs
The biggest roof threat in Silsbee is trees. Pines snap in strong winds and can puncture roofs and decking — a situation that calls for emergency tarping and structural repair.
Shade, moss and algae
Roofs that rarely see full sun stay damp, growing moss and algae that hold moisture against shingles.
