Oregon's frequent rainfall, especially in the western part of the state, means that older roofing materials can degrade faster. Water infiltration is a primary concern, leading to issues like rot and structural damage. For rubber roofing specifically, regular inspections are crucial to identify any pooling water or membrane tears that could compromise your home's integrity. The state's housing stock often features a mix of architectural styles, and the type of rubber roofing installed will depend on the roof's pitch and design.
