5 Clear Signs of Roof Damage

Missing or Damaged Shingles

High winds and hail can dislodge or break shingles, leaving your roof vulnerable to leaks. Look for patches where shingles are missing or cracked—even minor shingle damage can compromise your roof’s protective barrier.

Granules in Gutters

Asphalt shingles are coated with granules that protect against UV rays. After a storm, take a look at your gutters to see if there is build-up of these granules. If you find any, it could mean that the shingles are wearing out and may need replacing.

Dented or Damaged Flashing

Flashing is what seals the joints and edges of your roof to keep water out. Storms can dent or loosen flashing—especially around chimneys, vents, and skylights. It’s a good idea to check these areas for signs of damage or displacement.

Interior Leaks or Water Stains

If you notice water stains on your ceilings or walls, it can be a sign that your roof is leaking. Along with discolored patches, you may notice peeling paint or wallpaper. If you see these things, it’s a good idea to have your roof inspected.

Sagging or Warped Roof Sections

If you notice any sagging or warping in your roofline, it can be a sign of structural damage caused by heavy snow, ice, or prolonged water exposure. These kinds of deformities can affect the roof’s integrity, so it’s important to address them right away.

Why Quick Action Matters

If you wait too long to make repairs after a storm, things can only get worse from there. You could be looking at structural damage and mold growth can happen if you don’t take care of it right away.  

You’ll save money on repairs—or even replacement—down the line.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How can I tell if my roof has been damaged by a storm?

Keep an eye out for obvious signs like missing or cracked shingles, granules building up in your gutters, water stains on ceilings or walls, and sagging or warped roof sections.

What should I do if I suspect my roof has storm damage?

Check and see if you notice anything out of the ordinary—such as missing shingles or interior leaks. If you do, it’s time to call in a professional roofing company—like Apex Restoration & Roofing—for a detailed inspection and assessment.

How soon should I have my roof inspected after a storm?

It’s a good idea to get your roof checked out as soon as you can after a storm. If you catch issues early, you can keep your roof in good shape and avoid spending a fortune on repairs, or even replacement, later.

Should I be concerned about roof leaks even if there’s no visible damage?

Yes, some storm damage is not immediately visible. Hidden issues, like small leaks, can turn into big problems over time. Regular inspections can help catch these early on.
