Hail and Ice

Hail storms are tricky as they can easily damage the structure of your roof without appearing to have damage to your shingles. Many times roofs can handle the stress of hail storms but the damage beneath the surface can be incredibly detrimental. If the shingles do show damage, it’s usually in the form of hairline cracks that cannot be spotted from the ground. 

Rain and Storms

Rain is probably one of the most common problems for your roof. Little drops of water are always seeking some kind of crack. Getting water under your shingles can freeze and expand when the temperature fluctuates, can grow mold, and will ultimately weaken the structure of your roof. 

Heavy Winds

Whether or not a storm hits, heavy winds can carry debris, tree limbs, and other items that can damage your roof. Anytime you hear that howling sound, check for missing shingles and items that might have landed on your roof.
