How to Recognize and Inspect Roof Damage After Storms
After severe weather, it’s natural to worry about potential roof issues—especially with hail and strong winds in the forecast. Want to know if your roof needs attention? Here’s what to look for once it’s safe to go outside:
- Shingle Damage: Look for cracked, curled, or missing shingles. Hail can leave dents or pockmarks, while wind gusts may lift or tear materials away entirely.
- Gutter and Downspout Issues: Check for dents, blockages, or sections pulled loose by heavy rain or hail impact.
- Loose or Exposed Nails: High winds can pop nails and loosen flashing, which may lead to leaks.
- Attic Leaks: Water stains on ceilings or in your attic after a storm are a red flag for roof leaks.
- Debris Accumulation: Branches, leaves, or other debris on the roof can clog drainage and cause damage if not promptly removed.
