Wind Damage Roof Inspection, explained.
Wind attacks a roof at its edges. Shingles along the eaves, rakes and ridge are the first to lift, crease or tear away, and once the sealant strip is broken, a shingle can flap in every later storm. Flashings can shift, ridge caps can loosen and tree limbs can crack decking or gouge the surface.
We inspect the edges and ridge first, then every slope, and check how well shingles are sealed down. We look for creases, missing tabs, exposed nails and displaced metal, and photograph each finding. The report shows what is damaged, what is at risk and what needs attention before the next storm.

Why do shingles blow off?
Wind lifts shingles whose sealant has aged, failed or never bonded. Once lifted, they can crease and tear.
Can lifted shingles be fixed?
Sometimes they can be resealed or replaced by a roofing contractor. We document the condition so the repair scope is clear.
Is a tarp needed?
If the deck or underlayment is exposed, temporary protection is often wise. We tell you what we see and what is urgent.
