Not all storm damage is obvious. Hail, wind, and rain can silently weaken your roof, tearing seals, lifting shingles, and letting moisture creep in. What looks fine from your driveway could already be hiding leaks, rot, or mold inside your attic and walls. The real danger is what you don’t see until it’s too late.
Storm winds may pull shingles loose or tear them away , opening paths for water.
Attic Moisture or Mold
Storms often lead to leaks in attic insulation, which breed mold and structural decay.
Granule Loss
Hail and rain strip the protective layer off shingles, reducing their lifespan dramatically.
Dents or Bruising on Roof
Hail strikes leave soft spots or visible bruises that weaken the roof’s surface strength.
Lifted Flashing or Seals
Water can sneak under lifted flashing and cracked seals, soaking the layers beneath.
Gutter Damage or Overflow
Storms can clog or break gutters, causing water to back up under your roofing system.
