“April Showers Bring May Flowers”… and Roof Damage!

As beautiful as spring days can be in Houston, the weather in our city is known for its fickleness, often changing on a dime. A bright, sunny day can suddenly switch to a torrential downpour at any moment. Severe thunderstorms, heavy rain, and strong winds are all common occurrences during a Houston spring. Just recently, parts of the Greater Houston area have already experienced a tornado and hail storm. With the oncoming hurricane season, the weather will only get more extreme.  

Check For Storm Roof Damage

Extreme weather, like the recent tornado and hail storm, can cause storm roof damage to your roof. Our Houston roofing company suggests that you do a preliminary inspection of your ceilings in every room to check how they are holding up. In addition, we also advise stepping into your attic and having a look, as leaks and cracks may have formed in your roof. It’s imperative to fix these issues as soon as possible, so that they do not lead to more serious issues in the future.

Heavy rains are often accompanied by strong winds, thus exposing your roof to falling tree limbs and branches. Falling tree limbs can severely damage your roof by creating structural cracks or knocking off shingles. If this happens, we suggest that you check the area after the storm has passed, and contact us immediately to perform a proper roof inspection. As always, a thorough roof inspection by one of our roofing experts is completely free.

The Importance of A Healthy Roof

A great characteristic of Houston is that despite being one of the largest cities in the country, it still holds a tremendous amount of beautiful natural scenery. The city is full of large trees, green shrubbery, and beautiful flowers. Unfortunately, one of the reasons plants do so well here is because of the tremendous amount of rain our city receives. This, along with other forms of extreme weather, puts roofs at risk of storm roof damage. Therefore, it’s important to make sure your roof is in top shape at all times.
