This hurricane season has been so active that we’ve exhausted the list of hurricane and tropical storm names for the 2020 season. With extensive damage occurring throughout the Gulf Coast, you may be wondering if you should get a Cinco Ranch roof replacement soon. If your roof meets the following criteria, then we definitely recommend a roof replacement as soon as possible. Cinco Ranch Roof Replacement Protects Your Home and Your Family This Hurricane Season The reason why we advocate for planning a roof replacement is that if your roof is about 15 years old and has sustained significant damage over the years, skipping the roof replacement means putting your home and your family at a level of risk that could have been easily prevented otherwise.

Although we want more than anything for hurricanes to not affect us, they inevitably do. Now that we’ve officially exhausted the year’s name list for different tropical storms, this tells us that we may have to reluctantly expect more storms to come. Rather than dealing with the costly risks of being uninformed, though, we thought we should break down the different signs of Houston storm damage. By catching the following signs, you can seek Houston roof repairs far sooner, which is better for your roof and your family. Is Your Houston Roof Sagging Anywhere? If your roof shows any sagging it is likely due to roof rot. Roof rot occurs when moisture from rain gets trapped underneath curled or creased shingles as a result of storm wind damage. This trapped moisture reaches the underlying boards and, sometimes, damages the roof insulation as well. When your roof sags, pooled rainwater may a...

Fall is officially here! Now is the time we recommend you get a seasonal roof inspection, as this is the most effective way to ensure your roof is strong, safe, and secure for the foreseeable future. Seasonal Inspections Help Keep An Eye On Your Katy Roof’s Integrity Our Houston roofing contractor recommends you get a Katy roof inspection at least twice a year–once in the spring and again in the fall. Although you can get an inspection at any time during the year, Spring inspections give us a good idea of how your roof will do in the extreme heat of summer. Fall inspections, on the other hand, help us determine if your roof will keep you protected throughout peak hurricane season and the colder months that lie ahead.  Try Not To Procrastinate On Your Katy Roof Inspection We find that some of our customers may decide to hold off on getting their roof inspected because they worry ...

An active hurricane season brings plenty of tropical storms. Excessive tropical storms and hurricanes mean that extensive wind damage and rain damage can impact your Tomball roof. Will you need Tomball roof repairs or a Tomball roof replacement? Here is what tropical storms mean for your roof. Tropical Storm Winds Can Cause Severe Tomball Roof Damage One of the primary concerns homeowners have toward tropical storm winds is that they effortlessly toss around all of the debris lying around your front and back-yards. Such debris includes garbage, branches, and even lawn decorations or furniture. When tossed around, this debris tends to puncture your roofing shingles, which creates an opening for a leak to form. Debris may also wind up in your gutters, blocking them from adequately driving water away from your structure. You can read more about the importance of your roof gutters here. A...

Now that we are in peak hurricane season, all eyes are on the Atlantic as it begins to stir up even more. Houston has been lucky to not get directly hit by a hurricane yet, but we aren’t completely out of the woods. In the event that we do get hit by a hurricane between now and November 30, you may need a Sugar Land roof replacement ASAP, because waiting until after a hurricane strikes isn’t ideal.  A Sugar Land Roof Replacement Ensures You’re Protected For The Rest Of Hurricane Season This year’s Atlantic hurricane season was predicted to be an active one and it was proven early on. It is crucial that your roof is strong enough to withstand future violent winds, heavy rains, and even possible hail storm damage. Keep in mind that a brand new roof is far stronger and more protective than an older one that has been subjected to past storm damage, debris, and/or aging. The Snowball ...

With plenty of tropical storm and hurricane activity taking place in the Atlantic as we progress through peak hurricane season, many Cypress homeowners are practicing hurricane preparedness ahead of time. Part of exercising hurricane preparedness is checking that your roof doesn’t already have wind damage. Here is what wind damage looks like on your Cypress roof. Signs Your Home Sustained Cypress Roof Wind Damage Signs of wind damage may go unnoticed for extended periods of time because you may experience heavy winds very sporadically. We recommend looking for any of the following signs. Leaking Roof Look for any leaks in the attic, as this is the easiest way to help you find the source of the leak. If you find a leak, it likely occurred as the result of shingles that were blown off of your roof by big gusts of wind during a past hurricane or tropical storm. Missing shingles expose t...
