Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, especially in the Midwest, known for its unpredictable weather. Even minor hail damage can develop into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps early can reduce future repair expenses.
How Hail Damages Your Roof
Hail damages your roof in multiple ways, depending on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath at risk of UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, reducing structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, allowing moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even small hailstones can cause serious damage if left unchecked.
How to Safeguard Your Roof from Hail
Here are useful tips to minimize hail damage:
- Consider impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
- Ensure regular roof maintenance, like repairing loose tiles or shingles.
