What does wind and hail damage do to your roof?

  1. Wind damage lifts the shingles, whether that’s raising them up or creasing and cracking them or blowing them off. allowing water to get in between the overlap pattern or get blown back under the shingles allowing eater to penetrate the roof. Hail damage, bruises or cracks shingles. Removing granules and creating an entry point for water to drain into the roof.
  2. Aged shingles are missing a lot of granules and have all sorts of dings that create entry points, and granules fall off over time, which makes the roof substantially weaker, and the algae protectant is gone, allowing your roof to grow its own ecosystem.
  3. Water in the roof rots the decking under the shingles. And eventually it collapses. Can start to rot trusses and beams too.
