Don’t Pay the Price for

Wind Damage

No matter the root cause, destruction from high winds can leave your roof exposed and your home at risk for further damage and higher repair costs if you don’t act quickly.

Even though your roof is designed to withstand the weather, damage can still happen. Wind gusts of only 75 to 85 miles have been found to damage roofing systems or even lift them from the decking. Lifting exposes your roof to costly water damage if not repaired before the next storm comes along.

AmeriPro Roofing is here to help when your roof shingles need wind damage repair. We can inspect your roof and repair the affected shingles, ensuring your home stays safe and comfortable through stormy conditions.

How the Wind Can Damage Your Roof

While you might expect damage from rain or hail, wind can take an unexpected toll on your home. Even strong spring and summer thunderstorms and weather bursts can cause significant damage to your roof. The age of your roof and shingles will also determine how much damage your house experiences. General wear will make your roof more susceptible to wind damage.

Wind affects various areas of your roof differently, especially if you have a particular kind of layout. Certain designs can increase damage to your shingles by changing the amount of force the wind applies to your roof. Some areas are more likely to experience damage, such as corners, edges and ridge lines.

Wind can cause damage through:

  • Curling: Wind can blow under the corner of a shingle and curl it. By curling or ripping shingles off, the wind leaves the roof exposed underneath and allows water to leak through.

  • Lifting: High winds coming over a roof can create a suction effect, lifting shingles upwards. Lifting can loosen the nails that hold the shingles down and tear the sealant between layers, leading to leaks.

  • Debris: Perhaps more damaging than the wind itself is the debris it can carry. Tree limbs and other types of debris can impact your roof, puncturing or destroying shingles.

  • Hail: Storms can be particularly damaging when the wind blows hail toward your roof. Hailstones can break shingles, windows, siding and more when the wind increases their force.

While a few broken shingles may seem minor, destruction from high winds can leave your roof exposed and your home at risk of water damage. Any type of crack or opening can let water seep into your house, leading to the potential for stains and mold growth.

How Do I Know If My Roof Has Wind Damage?

It’s a good idea to check your roof after a major weather event, even if you just give it a quick visual inspection. Look for the following signs of damage:

  • Broken or cracked skylights
  • Shingle granules in the gutter
  • Fallen trees or limbs near your roof
  • Missing or split chimney flashing
  • Water stains on the ceiling
  • Leaks or water damage in the attic
  • Broken, cracked, curled or missing shingles
  • Blisters, cracks and tears around the edges of the roof
  • Siding damage
  • Bent, loose or missing gutter sections

Some damage might be visible, but the best way to assess the condition of your roof after a storm is to hire a professional roofing contractor to perform a thorough inspection. Lifting shingles may be difficult to identify from the ground, but a professional will be able to detect them and repair them to keep your home free of leaks.

If you notice any damage to your building or roof, let a roofing professional know immediately. The expert emergency repair team at AmeriPro Roofing can fix your roof and protect your property from further damage.

What Our Customers

Are Saying

“First of all, I couldn’t be happier with all the professionals at AmeriPro Roofing. For example, from the time they gave me my roofing estimate, to the way they explained every single thing they were going to do. As a result, their service was outstanding. And, the repairs went exactly as they promised, plus they stayed on schedule and answered every question I had. And I had a lot of them. Finally, they treated me like a human being, instead of a person who filled their quota.”

“We wanted to improve the look of our home with new siding. But, we had no clue what colors to use, or what materials would work best. Our contact at AmeriPro Roofing was so patient. And above all, treated us with respect and kindness. We had a lot of questions. And we got the right answers every time. I was nervous about this project, but the vinyl siding is beautiful, and the color we chose just pops like you wouldn’t believe. In conclusion, the service was worth every penny.”

“Our roof needed replacing, and I had called a bunch of other roofers near me. In the first place, some were really pushy. And others treated me like I was stupid. In contrast, the guy at AmeriPro Roofing was a total pro. In fact, he was a straight shooter, listened before he talked, and told me he couldn’t give me any kind of estimate until he did an inspection. After the free inspection, I was sold, and I figure to get another 30 years out of this brand-new roof. In any event, I couldn’t be happier with AmeriPro Roofing.”
