Wind Damage Repair For Westerville Homes
Wind damage on a Westerville roof usually starts with the seal. Each shingle is glued to the one below by a strip of asphalt. Strong gusts lift the tab, break that bond and crease the shingle, and the next storm finishes the job. A roof can look intact from the ground and still be badly damaged.
We cover Westerville from our Dublin office, about 30 min away. After a wind event we inspect for free and photograph every lifted, creased or missing shingle.
What We Look For After Wind
- Missing shingles and exposed nail lines
- Creased tabs where shingles folded back
- Broken seal strips along the windward slopes
- Ridge cap and hip damage
- Lifted flashing and damaged vents
- Siding, gutter and soffit damage
Local Factors In Westerville
Storms
Where severe weather is concerned in Westerville, hail falls here in narrow bands rather than across the whole metro, and the damage that costs the most is rarely the damage you can see from the driveway.
Weather
Roofs in Westerville age on a specific clock: the freeze-thaw cycle runs dozens of times between November and March, so small defects become leaks over two or three seasons.
Signs Of Wind Damage
- Shingles or pieces of shingle in the yard
- Dark lines where the tabs have lifted
- Flapping or lifted shingle edges you can see from the ground
- New leaks after a windstorm
