Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms can seriously damage your roof, particularly in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even small hail damage can develop into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps in advance can reduce future repair expenses.
How Hail Damages Your Roof
Hail affects your roof in various ways, influenced by the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath at risk of UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, affecting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, enabling moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even small hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
How to Safeguard Your Roof from Hail
Here are effective tips to mitigate hail damage:
- Consider impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure proper roof maintenance, such as addressing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that may amplify storm-related damage.
- Schedule regular inspections with reputable roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures bolsters your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
