The Hidden Costs of Hail Damage
Hailstorms are particularly harmful to your roof, especially in the Midwest, known for its unpredictable weather. Even small hail damage can turn into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps in advance can save you thousands.
How Hail Damages Your Roof
Hail affects your roof in several ways, influenced by the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss exposing the layer beneath at risk of UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and weakened fasteners, reducing structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, enabling moisture infiltration.
Fun fact: Even small hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
Steps to Protect Your Roof
Here are useful tips to reduce hail damage:
- Consider impact-resistant shingles made for 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 reputable roofing contractors.
Following these measures enhances your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
