How Hail Damage Impacts Your Roof’s Health
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, notably in the Midwest, a hotspot for severe storms. Even seemingly insignificant hail damage can turn into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps early can reduce future repair expenses.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail affects 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 compromised fasteners, reducing structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, allowing moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even small hailstones can cause serious damage if left unchecked.
Steps to Protect Your Roof
Here are effective tips to reduce hail damage:
- Install impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure regular roof maintenance, like repairing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that may amplify storm-related damage.
- Schedule regular inspections with experienced roofing contractors.
Following these measures enhances your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
