Delaware Storm Damage Roof Repair
On average, Delaware receives up to 24 inches of snow each year. Winter regularly brings below-freezing temperatures, and spring is peak tornado season.
Local weather events can dislodge shingles, send tree branches hurtling down, and tear flashing, among other things. With timely storm damage roofing repairs, our roofers can repair minor damage and prevent developing issues from spreading.
Storm damage roof repair services and inspections address common weather-related roof issues.
- Impact damage
- Hail damage
- Leaky protrusions
- Blocked, bent or detached gutters
- Soffit and fascia damage
Strong winds can affect your roof’s most vulnerable areas, including the areas around chimneys, exhaust vents, skylights, and other roof protrusions, as well as its valleys and drainage system.
Bent, broken, and missing shingles are among the most common forms of roof storm damage. Stormy weather can leave your shingles curled, lifted, or torn off, compromising your roof’s protective barrier. Scheduling prompt repairs will keep water from seeping into the roofing substrate and entering your attic.
Addressing these issues right away is essential to prevent further damage to the structural integrity of your roof and avoid costly repairs in the future. Damaged shingles can expose the underlayment to moisture, leading to rot and decay that can spread to other parts of your home’s structure.
Sometimes, the signs of storm damage are most noticeable from inside the home. During an inspection after a storm, our roofers will look for signs such as water stains on your ceilings or walls. They will also check for any damp or humid conditions in your attic.
Wet insulation can indicate that water is infiltrating your home. During storm season, roof leaks are always progressive, so the best way to minimize property damage is by finding and fixing them immediately.
