Types of Strom Damage
Wind Damage
Wind roof damage can result in raised or missing tiles, exposing the underlying structure to water leaks and additional degradation. Powerful winds can also create structural strain, resulting to decreased roof integrity and endangering the overall safety of the structure.
Hail Damage
Hail roof damage can cause dents, cracks, or fractures in roofing materials, affecting their integrity. These flaws may result in leaks and water damage, needing immediate inspection and repairs to avoid future structural problems.
Water Damage
Water roof damage, which is frequently caused by leaks or poor drainage, can result in structural difficulties, mold development, and damaged insulation. Continuous water entry decays roofing materials, which can lead to drooping ceilings and interior damage.
Debris Damage
Debris damage to roofs, which is often caused by storms can result in cracked or displaced roofing components, compromising the protective layer. Fallen branches or debris impact can cause leaks and reduced structural integrity, needing immediate inspection and repair.
SIGNS OF STORM DAMAGE
1. Missing or damaged shingles
2. Dented roof vents
3. Water stains or leaks
4. Damaged flashing
5. Granule loss in gutters
6. Sagging or uneven roof areas
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SUSPECT YOU HAVE STORM DAMAGE
​If you see signs of storm damage, you need to schedule a roof inspection as soon as possible. If your residential or commercial roof has indeed suffered storm damage, its integrity could be compromised, putting your roof at risk.
