What Should I Monitor?
If your roof is older than fifteen years, or if you notice any of the following warning signs, you may be facing serious Storm Damage.
Untreated Storm Damage can lead to ceiling spots, flashing damage, or missing shingles.
Ceiling spots are represented by leaks in your roof. You can find them by looking in your attic, crawlspace, or deck. You can also look in your chimney, vents, or rafters for signs of an ongoing leak. These spots are generally caused by damaged or missing shingles.
Shingles can go missing or become damaged due to improper fastening, exposure to high winds or storms, or poor maintenance. Fortunately, you won’t have to redo your entire roof to fix a shingle problem. Most shingles can be replaced independently – piece by piece.
Damaged flashing, which can also lead to leaks and ceiling spots, is caused by poor installation, dry, or cracking. This can also be repaired without completely replacing your roof.
What If I Find Storm Damage?
What comes after you find one of these warning signs? Call our offices at Select Roofing Consultants. Our experts can come out for a Storm Damage assessment.

What About Insurance?
Smart homeowners know to call a professional roofer for a thorough inspection and a cost estimate before speaking with insurance companies. At SRC, we’ll be able to tell you whether or not your Storm Damage repair is likely to be covered. This can help you avoid a claim on your record.
Generally speaking, normal aging and wear-and-tear of your home and roof isn’t covered by insurance. Still, if our roof inspection shows evidence of damage caused by wind, hail, or a storm, we’ll be able to make a claim and have your insurance cover the cost.
