How Hail Damage Impacts Your Roof’s Health
Hailstorms can seriously damage your roof, especially in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even minor hail damage can turn into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps now can save you thousands.
How Hail Damages Your Roof
Hail can harm your roof in several ways, based on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss uncovering the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and compromised fasteners, reducing structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, leading to moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even small hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
Preventing Hail Damage to Your Roof
Here are practical tips to minimize hail damage:
- Use impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure adequate roof maintenance, such as addressing loose tiles or shingles.
- Trim overhanging branches that could worsen storm-related damage.
- Schedule regular inspections with qualified roofing contractors.
Investing in these measures enhances your roof’s defense against extreme weather.
