🔍 Key Signs of Wind Damage on NJ Roofs

Wind damage roof repair on a New Jersey home showing lifted and missing shingles after a windstorm

Watch for these warning signs:

  • Missing or lifted shingles: Winds starting at 25–50 mph can blow off loose shingles, while speeds over 50 mph cause major tearing.
  • Damaged flashing: Metal strips around chimneys and vents pull away or loosen, causing roof leaks.
  • Debris and fallen limbs: Large branches can puncture the roof surface or dent materials.
  • Interior leaks: Water stains on ceilings or walls point to active roof breaches.
  • Granule loss: Shingles that have lost their protective granules appear bald or weathered in patches.
  • Cracked sealant: Wind can break the tar sealant holding shingles together, exposing nail heads to weather.

⚠️ Safety Note:

Never climb onto your roof to inspect damage after a wind event. Call us for a free professional assessment — we document everything safely and provide detailed photographic evidence for insurance claims.

❄️ Hail Damage Inspection & Repair

Hail storms can cause significant roof damage in just minutes. Unlike wind, which primarily affects shingles and flashing, hail creates impact dents and punctures that compromise your roof's waterproof integrity. Many homeowners don't immediately see hail damage — but when it goes unrepaired, leaks develop weeks or months later.

  • Dented or bruised shingles that show impact marks
  • Missing roof granules creating a pocked, aged appearance
  • Damaged gutters, siding, or HVAC units (hail hits everything)
  • Cracked or punctured metal flashing

💡 Hidden Damage Risk:

Hail damage often isn't visible from the ground. We use drone inspections and close-up photography to catch damage you might miss — critical for insurance documentation.

We serve all Bergen County communities including Paramus, Teaneck, Fort Lee, and surrounding areas. Hail damage claims have a high approval rate when properly documented by licensed contractors.
