The Hidden Costs of Hail Damage
Hailstorms are particularly harmful to your roof, particularly in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even seemingly insignificant hail damage can escalate long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps now can reduce future repair expenses.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail can harm your roof in multiple ways, influenced by the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss uncovering the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and compromised fasteners, affecting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, enabling moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even tiny hailstones can cause serious damage if left unchecked.
How to Safeguard Your Roof from Hail
Here are effective tips to minimize hail damage:
- Use impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure adequate roof maintenance, like repairing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that could worsen storm-related damage.
- Plan for regular inspections with experienced roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures strengthens your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
