Consequences of Wind Damage

While wind damage can impact the appearance of your home, there are more severe, often unseen consequences that must be considered. An unaware homeowner may end up delaying critical roof repair that can result in a series of problems. So, why is it so crucial to tackle wind damage as quickly as possible?

LEAKS

Wind and hail damage causes gaps or holes in your roofing, it can easily result in leaking issues. When water enters your home, mold and mildew may begin to grow. Additionally, water can quickly begin to cause rot in exposed wood. It may also warp other vital components of your house, which can result in lasting structural damage. This result in damages far exceeding the cost of a roof repair.

WEAKENED SHINGLES

In the case of shingles, extreme winds can cause a loss of granules, which exposes the coating to external elements, thereby catalyzing the roof’s aging. In severe cases, roofs could suffer cracked or entirely missing shingles, putting your roof in a vulnerable position. This is why it should be repaired by roofing experts as soon as possible, to save the homeowner in the long run.

UV EXPOSURE

You may not realize it, but UV rays can damage specific components of your roof. UV exposure can easily damage the materials underneath your shakes and shingles, like your underlayment and roof deck. This damage can drastically reduce the lifespan of your current roofing, resulting in a costly roofing replacement in the future.
