Wind Damage

What Exactly is Wind Damage? Wind damage doesn’t necessarily require  you to have shingle pieces laying in your yard! If wind gusts of 40 mph  can have devastating effects on the exterior of your home, imagine what a  60, 70 or 80 mph gust will do? Factors such as structural height,  geographical ground features and roof pitch can and will contribute to  the exposure of weak construction points of your home.

Once this seal  is broken, repetitive wind fatigue will fracture or “crease” a shingles  at the top lap. These broken seals and fractures contribute to ice  damming, water saturation of your attic recesses and, eventually the  interior of your home. Here’s the catch!
