7 Signs You Need a Roof Inspection After a Storm

After a storm passes through Georgia, many homeowners assume their roof is fine if there are no visible leaks. However, storm damage is often hidden and can lead to expensive repairs if left untreated.

Here are seven signs your roof should be inspected after a storm.

Missing shingles:
High winds can tear shingles away from the roof deck, exposing the underlayment to water damage.

Granules in gutters:
If you notice shingle granules collecting in your gutters, it may indicate that your roof has suffered hail or wind damage.

Bent flashing:
Storm winds can bend or loosen metal flashing around chimneys and vents, allowing water to enter your home.

Water stains on ceilings:
Interior water stains often indicate roof leaks that started during a storm.

Loose gutters;
Strong winds can pull gutters away from the roofline, affecting drainage.

Debris on the roof:
Tree branches and debris can puncture shingles and cause structural damage.

Damaged roof vents:
Roof vents and pipe boots are common weak points during severe storms.

A professional roof inspection can identify hidden damage before it turns into a major repair.
