Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, notably in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even minor hail damage can turn into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps early can help you avoid costly repairs.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail damages your roof in multiple ways, depending on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath vulnerable to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, impacting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, enabling moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even small hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
Preventing Hail Damage to Your Roof
Here are effective tips to reduce hail damage:
- Use impact-resistant shingles made for severe hail.
- Ensure proper roof maintenance, including fixing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that might increase storm-related damage.
- Schedule regular inspections with experienced roofing contractors.
Taking these measures enhances your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
