Spot Storm Damage on Your Roof

How Storms Impact Your Roof

Your roof protects your home from heavy rain, strong winds, and hail. But after a storm, even small amounts of damage can quickly escalate into major repairs if left unchecked. Recognizing early warning signs helps you act before issues get worse and costlier.

Common Signs of Storm Damage

Missing or Damaged Shingles
High winds can lift shingles, leaving exposed patches where water can seep in.

Granule Loss on Asphalt Shingles
If you notice excess granules in your gutters or downspouts, your shingles are wearing out faster than normal.

Leaks and Water Stains Indoors
Ceiling spots, peeling paint, or damp walls are red flags that your roof’s protective layer has been compromised.

Dented Gutters and Flashing
Hail and debris can dent gutters, vents, or flashing. These dents often indicate roof damage too.

Why Acting Quickly Matters

Roof damage doesn’t stay minor for long. A single missing shingle can allow water to spread, causing rot, mold, and insulation problems. Addressing issues promptly keeps repair costs down and extends the life of your roof.

Professional Roof Inspections vs. DIY Checks

While you can spot obvious signs of damage, many issues aren’t visible from the ground. Professional roofing contractors use specialized training and tools to uncover hidden problems before they cause serious harm.
