Hailstorms can seriously damage your roof, particularly in the Midwest, where extreme weather is frequent. Even small hail damage can develop into long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps now can reduce future repair expenses.
How Hail Damages Your Roof
Hail damages your roof in various ways, depending on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss uncovering the layer beneath open to UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and loosened fasteners, impacting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, leading to moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even minor hailstones can lead to significant problems if left unchecked.
