Storms can have major effects on your home, although not all of them are as major or noticeable as a fallen tree or hole in the roof. However, that doesn’t mean smaller issues aren’t as important.
Here are three of the top signs of storm damage to your roof that you should never ignore.
- Water damage. Wet spots and stains indicative of water damage are a severe warning of potential major issues to your roof. This type of storm damage can quickly become widespread and affect multiple areas of your home, which is why it should never be ignored. If you notice any signs of water damage to your roof, be sure to call a professional roofer right away.
- Missing shingles. Shingles can be blown away with high winds, scratching tree branches, and other elements related to a storm. Though this issue isn’t as severe as other types of damage, it still shouldn’t be ignored. Shingles are the first line of defense that your roof has against the outside world, so don’t ignore when they get blown away.
- Holes and punctures. Sometimes small holes or punctures often lead to leaks and pest infestations, so you’ll want to make sure holes in your roof get patched up as soon as possible following a storm. The longer you ignore holes, the higher your chance of a pest infestation and other issues are.
