Hail damaged roof
The amount of hail damage a roof can take before repair is hard to determine. The damage a hail storm causes depends on many variables — the size and density of the hailstones, wind speed and direction, and the age and quality of your roof.
After a storm, assessing hail damage might be difficult. A few signs to look for include loss of granules, black spots on shingles, broken or missing shingles, and asphalt that appears shiny. When it comes to roof repairs, there is little our experts haven't seen.
Roof wind damage
El Paso is known for its strong winds, especially at the beginning of spring. The problem with wind damage is that sometimes you can't see the results of a bad wind storm. Strong winds cause stress points on a roof, and over time durability can be compromised.
Corners and edges are especially susceptible — if any roofing materials are even a bit loose, wind will get beneath and loosen them further. Over time, if not addressed, a chain peeling effect can happen, exposing large portions of the roofing.
