Easily identify roof damage caused by hail
1st step: Check Metal Parts of Your Roofing
Believe it or not, but the parts of your roofing that are made of metal will actually show signs of hail damage more transparently than other materials like shingles. If you have metal roof vents, flashing, etc on your roofing, it is easy to check to see if you have any dents.
2nd step: Look for Ridge Cap Damage
Most residential roofs in Lake Zurich IL have a ridge cap at the top. The ridge cap is normally flat and because of this it is more susceptible to hail damage. At this time you (or our team of professionals) should also inspect the shingles in the immediate area for any signs of harm.
Other Major Signs
The three most common signs of hail damage to your shingles are:
- Bruising
- Cracking
- Granules missing from asphalt (one easy way to spot this is to actually look in your gutters. If you see a build up of shingle granules call us as soon as you can).
Hail Damaged Roof Restoration in Lake Zurich IL
Hail storms can wreak havoc on homes – many times without homeowners even realizing it.
Our experienced and knowledgable team offers free roofing inspections after storms rage through Lake Zurich. This helps us find problems before they become more serious for homeowners. When it comes to damage done to your home’s roof, asphalt shingles are the most likely to be impacted. When an asphalt shingle is damaged by hail the fiberglass in the shingle could become fractured which will lead to substantial granule loss. When these granules are displaced it exposes the lower portions of the shingle to the elements. This can dramatically decrease the effectiveness and lifespan of the roof.
