How Can I Tell If My Roof Was Damaged In A Storm?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A massive storm has blown through your region! Your yard is an absolute mess, but your house seems to be fairly unscathed&#8230;but is the roof okay? Is it going to leak? Do shingles need to be replaced? Does a professional need to come in and inspect for damage?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it may appear frustrating to figure this out alone, here are some simple signs you can watch for to help decide what to do next.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seek Out The Obvious<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are instances where the damage to a roof is easy to spot, and you\u2019ll immediately recognize that there could be an issue. This includes:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water spots showing up on the ceiling after the storm<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shingles that are damaged, destroyed or missing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peeling paint and\/or wet walls<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roof flashing that appears broken or damaged\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water that is pooling around the home or on the roof<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trees or branches laying atop the roof\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These will be noticeable immediately, and you\u2019ll know that a professional needs to come in to inspect the roof and other areas impacted by the damage. However, you may have less conspicuous damage that you haven\u2019t seen yet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Less Apparent Signs of Roof Damage<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if you\u2019re not a roof expert, there are some other signs that you\u2019re able to safely look for. The keyword is \u201csafely\u201d because it\u2019s incredibly dangerous to climb up onto a roof if you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re doing, and you don\u2019t want to be put at risk. Keeping that in mind, there are a few other things you can look for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A buildup of shingle granules or damage to asphalt\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flashing that appears to be loose or is missing along roofing, chimneys or vents<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Detached or loose sealant along the roof, chimney, or vents<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water damage to the inside of your attic\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call On An Inspector<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s common that roof damage is not visible from the ground or without a professional taking a look. Trademark\u2019s certified roofing inspectors will come over and take a look at your roof so you know if there are any problems and what can be done to fix them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of the kind of extreme weather you\u2019ve experienced, it\u2019s crucial to have regular roof inspections done in order to keep your house in working order and to avoid having to shell out a ton of money for bigger repairs in the future. Contact Trademark Roofing today and one of our certified roofing inspectors will come take a look!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A massive storm has blown through your region!
