A roof with water damage.

As a resident of Louisiana, you know what time of year it is. That’s right! We are in the middle of hurricane season and storm damage is a big possibility with each splash of rain. You might’ve had some already with the recent storm, Barry. Severe weather such as high winds or hail is the number one cause of roof damage. Heavy rains often cause flooding and powerful winds that lay trees all over your property.  If these hulking trees hit your roof, that’s a big issue! In such an event, you need to contact a reputable restoration company to repair any damage. If you’re looking for roof replacement in Denham Springs, Ryson Roofing is the way to go. 

In The Event Of Storm Damage

Any kind of severe weather has the potential to destroy your roofing shingles and compromise the integrity of your roof. Strong winds often cause fallen trees and damage to your roof. Because of this, it’s important to get your roof inspected after any severe weather. Even the smallest damage to your roof can cause problems that will end up costing you more down the road. 

Even if a storm doesn’t produce a torrent of rain or a volley of hail, wind alone can cause enough damage to warrant a roof replacement. Insurance companies would rather replace the roof than wait until it becomes a whole house problem. Because we love helping out our fellow man, here are a handful of ways to spot preliminary roof damage:

  1. Inspect your attic for leaks or water damage. If you notice water stains on your ceiling or walls, a repair is more than likely needed.
  2. Check your property for dislocated shingles or missing pieces of metal, especially around the lining of your roof.  
  3. Be sure to assess the lining of your roof from the ground. Check your exhaust pipes, valleys, and angles where your roof meets the walls. 
  4. Be sure to stay safe, avoid going on the roof to check for damages yourself, instead, contact one of our professionals at Ryson Roofing if you notice something out of the ordinary.

Stay safe out there this storm season!
