YOUR EXPERT ROOFING CONTRACTOR IN POOLER

Some roof damage is obvious, and some damage may be hidden or hard to find. As a homeowner, doing a walk-around to check for obvious damage is good!

Here are some of the most common signs of roof damage:

• Shingles are missing or out of place, skewed to the side, algae growth is visible, and shingles appear to be uprooted or curling.
• Your roof seems to be sinking in, or the shingles appear to be sinking in.
• Stains from water intrusion appear on the ceiling or walls from a potential roof leak.
• Exposed parts of the roof are showing, and the shingles are missing.
  
  

Since your roof is the highest elevation of your home, it can be incredibly challenging to identify hidden damage. The hard-to-swallow answer is that, in some cases, damage can exist for years and go unnoticed altogether. Some harder-to-identify roof damage includes pipe collar cracks, rotting plywood, and roof leaks. The severity of the damage will determine whether a repair will fix the damage or a completely new roof is needed. That is why it is so important to hire a professional roofing company to deliver an honest assessment of the damage. Most roofing services will offer a free estimate, so why not have a professional come take a look!
