Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms are particularly harmful to your roof, notably in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even minor hail damage can escalate long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps early can reduce future repair expenses.
Understanding the Impact of Hail Damage
Hail affects your roof in various ways, influenced by the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and weakened fasteners, impacting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, allowing moisture infiltration.
Did you know? Even small hailstones can create long-term issues if left unchecked.
Steps to Protect Your Roof
Here are practical tips to mitigate hail damage:
- Use impact-resistant shingles made for severe hail.
- Ensure proper roof maintenance, including fixing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that might increase storm-related damage.
- Arrange regular inspections with qualified roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures bolsters your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
