The Hidden Costs of Hail Damage
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, especially 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 save you thousands.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail damages your roof in various ways, depending on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss exposing the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and weakened fasteners, affecting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, allowing moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even tiny hailstones can cause serious damage if left unchecked.
How to Safeguard Your Roof from Hail
Here are effective tips to minimize hail damage:
- Install impact-resistant shingles made for severe hail.
- Ensure adequate roof maintenance, like repairing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that might increase storm-related damage.
- Plan for regular inspections with qualified roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures strengthens your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
