Things to Know...
For homeowners that prefer inspecting their roof themselves, here are some helpful tips.
First, keep in mind, even if there was no hail or rain, you could still have a damaged roof. High speed winds can cause stress on a roof that, eventually, becomes weakened and structurally compromised.
Here are some things to look for when inspecting your roof.
Attic inspection
Sometimes when checking after the rain has ceased, the leakage is not obvious. That is another good reason to inspect it right away. Check everywhere from the rafters to the insulation for leaks, moisture marks, dampness and mold. When mold is present, always call a professional to remove all spores.
Composition shingles
Broken, missing shingle, granule depletion, pulled away or damaged.
Flashing
Buckling or tears near the roof penetration.
Soffit and ridge vents
Vents damaged or clogged. Flashing and surrounding shingles curling or missing.
Chimney
Flashing missing, damaged, leaning bricks, or cracks in cement.
Soffit and fascia
Stained, damaged, curling, missing, decayed or clogged.
Gutters
Debris, clogged, decay, rust, leaky seams
