It's the time of the season for severe weather and riding out springtime storms. Make sure your roof is up to the challenge of protecting your home this Spring.
Thunderstorms bring high winds, heavy hitting rain and hail, and flying debris that can ruin the sleek look of your roof and leave your home vulnerable to a leaking roof.
Here are 4 signs your roof has storm damage:
Peeling, shattered, or missing shingles
Visible granule loss - the rough, sandpaper like part of the shingle can be lost making the shingle less effective in shedding water, protecting from UV rays, and being fire resistant.
Indoor Flooding - if you're experiencing a leaky roof in your attic or on the top floor of your home, this is a HUGE sign that there is damage to your roof and that the roof you currently have isn't working optimally.
Clogged or broken Gutters or downspouts - gutters get clogged with debris, maintain your gutter system with regular cleanings, 1-4 times a year, to help prevent water puddles from forming and rusting the metal. If you have sagging gutters or if they're pulling away from the home, consider an update to your system.
