Signs of Storm Damage on Your Roof

Maintaining roofs vary depending on locations as there are possible regions with high humidity levels. However, when a storm hits an area, homeowners are always urged to have theirs checked to ensure safety and their roofing’s functionality. If you have a leaking roof, what could be the possible signs that your system has been damaged by the storm? We have listed them down below.

Attic concerns and moisture. To avoid leaks, check your attic for any signs of moisture penetration. It can be noted that inundated surfaces and insulation may be required to be replaced to stop the development of dangerous mold or mildew.
Missing shingles and thin horizontal lines after wind damage. Look for cracks and dents and check whether granules have been worn off beneath the shingle. Remember that this could indicate that the shingle seal was broken and was flapping in the wind.
Clogged gutters and downspouts. Following a storm, call a roofing company to have your gutters immediately cleaned. Water drains from a broken gutter directly down into the foot of the building. In time, this can erode the foundation and make the structure unsafe.
Loose debris. Any loose debris you notice around your home could indicate something struck your roof during high winds. Clear debris away as soon as possible to minimize the risk for further deficiencies and hefty roof fixes.
Other collateral hail damage around the house. If you ever see dents on your mailbox, fence, cars, and other items in your yard, call a professional contractor to have your gutters and roof checked.

I wanted to let you know about an experience I had with one of your employees. I live at 1200 Knottingham Court in Kingsport Estates and apparently, your company is servicing our condo association. My building has had a leak in the entryway for several months and Eddie was dispatched out to have me show him the source of the leak inside. I met him on Friday, September 21st and just wanted to tell you how impressed I was with his friendliness and professionalism. He immediately found the source of the leak and even went up on the roof to show me. He assured me that someone would take care of it as soon as possible and told me he would give the report priority to avoid any further damage. As someone who used to be in Customer Service, I always value a company that hires people that are not only skilled at their trade, but also skilled at interacting with people. Eddie is a great example of that and I wanted you to know so you could tell him what a great job he does! I am so glad that Alma Management chose Adams Roofing to be our roofing contractor!...

Charlie, Thanks very much for replacing the gutter! No one has been out to do it, at least before I left for work this morning. But I will definitely let you know whether it’s done correctly. I am very satisfied with your roofing job. It looks great, and more importantly, there were no leaks when it rained (even though we haven’t gotten really hard rains yet). So, I have been very pleased with my experience with Adams, especially with the professionalism and responsiveness of you and Dan. Thanks.... [more]

I wanted to take a moment to comment on your technician, Eddie. Eddie was assigned to inspect a roof leak I am having in my home in Cobblestone Circle. He was prompt, professional, courteous and informative; everything a customer could ask for when inviting a contractor into their home. Eddie represents Adams Roofing Well; and clearly he is an asset to your company. Kudos to him! Thank you.... [more]
