Storm damage can significantly reduce the lifespan of your roof. Even small storms can compromise roofing systems and strong winds can start tearing away shingles. Keep in mind that roof storm damage can be easily missed by an untrained eye. Let’s look at the importance of getting a roof inspection following a storm even if the system isn’t leaking.
Detect Issues Before They Get Bigger
You should have your roof inspected at least once a year and after a major weather event. While waiting for your roofer, you can examine the condition of your roof from the ground. A pair of binoculars will help in checking for obvious signs of damage. Even if you don’t see visible damage on your roof or there aren’t leaks, you should still contact your roofer.

An inspection from a professional roofing contractor is essential for filing insurance claims.
