How to Storm-Proof Your Roof Before Summer Hits

As summer approaches, homeowners start thinking about outdoor upgrades and longer days. But it’s also the start of a season that brings unpredictable weather, heavy rain, and high winds—all of which can put your roof to the test.

Now is the time to ensure your roof is ready.

A well-maintained roof can withstand storms better and help prevent unexpected damage that leads to expensive repairs. With a few practical steps, you can reinforce your roof and stay ahead of the weather.

Schedule a Roof Inspection

A professional inspection is the best way to identify and address vulnerabilities early. Even if your roof looks fine from the ground, our team can catch things like:

  • Loose or damaged shingles
  • Worn flashing around chimneys and skylights
  • Minor leaks
  • Soft spots or sagging areas
  • Debris buildup in gutters and roof valleys

Addressing these issues now can save you from much larger problems later.

Keep Surroundings Clear

Overhanging tree limbs and accumulated debris can become major hazards in high winds. Trimming branches and clearing gutters improves drainage and reduces the risk of impact damage.

Review Flashing and Seals

Flashing is a common failure point during storms. Checking for gaps or worn sealant around roof edges and protrusions can help stop water intrusion during heavy rain.

Know Your Warranty and Insurance Coverage

Understanding your roof’s age, warranty, and what your insurance covers can give you peace of mind in case of storm-related damage. If your roof is older, now might be a good time to consider a replacement for better protection.
