Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms are particularly harmful 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 save you thousands.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail damages your roof in various ways, influenced by the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, impacting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, enabling moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even small hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
Preventing Hail Damage to Your Roof
Here are effective tips to minimize hail damage:
- Install impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure regular roof maintenance, including fixing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that may amplify storm-related damage.
- Schedule regular inspections with qualified roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures strengthens your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
