How to Recognize and Inspect Roof Damage After Storms
Curious what signs to watch for after severe weather like today’s? Even moderate wind and hail can leave subtle damage that grows into major problems over time. Here are key steps for a quick post-storm roof check:
- Visual Inspection: Walk around your home and look for missing, cracked, or curled shingles.
- Check Gutters and Downspouts: Look for shingle granules or pieces of roofing material, which may signal hail or wind damage.
- Inspect Attic & Ceilings: Look for new water stains or leaks indoors—these are red flags for roof breaches.
- Look for Dents: Metal flashing, vents, and skylights are especially vulnerable to hail.
- Check for Debris: Downed branches can puncture or stress your roof structure, even if damage isn’t visible from the ground.
