Is Your Roof Ready for Severe Weather?
Strong wind gusts and hail—even as small as peas—can cause hidden damage to roofs. Shingles may curl, crack, or blow off entirely. Gutters can loosen, and small leaks might start without you noticing. Curious about what this kind of weather could do to your home’s roof?
How to Recognize and Inspect Roof Damage After Today’s Storm
- Visual Check: Look for missing, broken, or curled shingles from the ground as soon as the storm is over.
- Check Gutters: Notice granules or shingle debris collecting? It could signal roof wear or recent hail damage.
- Attic & Ceilings: After periods of heavy rain, inspect for water stains or drips indoors. This could mean the roof has been compromised.
- Exterior Walk-Around: Examine the perimeter for fallen branches, loose flashing, or damaged vent covers.
