The Hidden Costs of Hail Damage
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, especially in the Midwest, a hotspot for severe storms. Even seemingly insignificant hail damage can escalate 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 uncovering the layer beneath at risk of UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, affecting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, leading to moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even minor hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
Preventing Hail Damage to Your Roof
Here are useful tips to mitigate hail damage:
- Consider impact-resistant shingles made for severe hail.
- Ensure adequate roof maintenance, including fixing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that might increase storm-related damage.
- Plan for regular inspections with qualified roofing contractors.
Following these measures strengthens your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
