​Benefits to Having a Roof Inspection for Storm Damage
 
When it comes to roofing, several factors can contribute to its lifespan. First, some signs would be visible outside the property, such as wear and tear or general deterioration. However, some things aren't always quite so clear-cut.
 
Many homeowners may not realize that there are consequences for hanging tree branches over roofs to provide shade. While this may seem like a good idea for some backyard shade, it can also stress the roof. Unfortunately, when storm damage happens, that's when these hidden problems are often revealed.
 
Six Benefits of Roof Inspection for Storm Damage 
  1. Damage from Mother Nature - It is essential to have your roof inspected after any major storm for you to decide if repairs need to be made or an entirely new roof should be put in place. This is where a professional will come in and inspect the entire roofing structure, including shingles and framing; this is not something you should ever try to do yourself.
  2. Prevention -  By having your roof inspected by a professional, you will be able to address potential damage before it happens. For example, if any branches hanging over the roof, they should be removed because this leads to lots of added strain that can cause shingles to peel or break.
  3. Mold Damage - If there is any damage caused to the roof due to storms, wind, or hail, mold may begin growing between walls and ceilings inside the home. On average, it takes about ten days for mold to start growing, so if you catch it early on, then it can be prevented.
  4. Roof Replacement -  If your roof is beginning to show signs of extreme wear and tear or damage that has occurred over time, then it may become necessary to replace the entire structure rather than just repairing one section. However, this will depend on the extent of the storm damage, as there may only be certain areas that need immediate attention while others are simply in need of repair.
  5. Saving Money - Proper roof maintenance can extend its life by many years, which means you won't have to spend money every few years on a new roof like some homeowners do after each major storm. A new roof can cost thousands of dollars; not only that, but the entire process of replacing it can take several days to complete. If you live in an area with frequent storms, then having your roof inspected after each one is highly recommended.
  6. Professional Inspection - By hiring professional roof inspectors, you can ensure that your money is well spent. Not only do they have the experience needed to spot trouble areas, but they are also insured and will provide an explanation of what needs to be done if repairs or replacements are necessary. They can also provide you with written reports for insurance companies to reimburse any costs incurred during the roof replacement process.
 
Conclusion:Having a professional inspect your roof can help you spot signs of trouble before they happen. It is recommended that you do this after any storm, as this can uncover hidden issues that you may not be aware of otherwise.
 
By having your roof inspected, you will also learn how much longer it has before needing to be replaced, saving both time and money in the long run for homeowners.
