*Wind Damage*
A customer called us for this repair last year, and it is a good example of what the wind can do to a roof.
Wind got under these shingles, which were high-nailed by a different contractor, and ripped them up in a sheet. Many companies will tell you they have to replace the whole roof. This roof was only a few years old, and we saved our customer thousands of dollars by offering to repair it instead of replacing it.
We've had a lot of wind the past few months, and checking on your roof sooner, rather than later, can save you a lot of money!
Tips for keeping your shingle roof where it should be:
- Inspect your roof yearly, if you can.
- Look for missing shingles or caps.
- Check your penetrations and reapply sealant if needed.
- Clean your gutters and keep an eye out for granule loss.
- Inspect your fascia and soffit for damage.
We usually do our roof inspections in the spring, and this is a great time to check on your roof. I'll share our roof inspection checklist in another post so you know what to look for if you'd like to do it yourself.
