Today we performed a detailed repair assessment on wind-damaged asphalt shingles
When a shingle creases from wind uplift, the issue isnāt just the visible damage. The real question is:
š šš®š» š¶š šÆš² šæš²š½š®š¶šæš²š± šš¶ššµš¼šš š±š¶ššššæšÆš¶š»š“ ššµš² šššæšæš¼šš»š±š¶š»š“ ššµš¶š»š“š¹š²š?
During a proper repairability assessment, we evaluate:
āļø Wind-induced creasing and flexural damage
āļø Loss of elastic recovery
āļø Compromised self-seal adhesive
āļø Whether lifting or replacing one shingle disturbs adjacent, sealed shingles
āļø Risk of breaking factory seal strips during manipulation
Hereās what many donāt realize:
When you lift a sealed shingle to replace one damaged shingle, you may disturb the surrounding shingles. That disturbance can create new points of failure - even if those shingles were previously functional.
If surrounding shingles lose their functionality during a repair attempt, the roof system is no longer restored to its pre-loss condition.
Insurance carriers may count individual shingles.
We assess system performance.
If your roof experienced high winds, make sure the evaluation includes disturbance testing, not just a shingle count.
