Roof Damage After a Storm — What to Look For

  • Dents or bruising on shingles, gutters, and flashing
  • Missing, cracked, or lifted shingles
  • Granule loss (dark streaks in downspouts or gutters)
  • Dented or damaged skylights, vents, and AC units
  • Interior water stains on ceilings or walls

Even minor hail damage can compromise your roof's waterproofing. A licensed roofer can identify hidden damage before it leads to leaks or mold.
