Wind Damage Roof Repair

What Wind Does to a Roof

Strong winds can lift shingle seals, crease or tear tabs, and pull off ridge caps. On low-slope roofs, uplift can loosen edge metal, open seams, and dislodge flashings—creating fast paths for leaks.

Look for:

• Missing or curled shingles, creased tabs, exposed nail heads
• Lifted ridge/hip caps, loose or bent flashing at chimneys/vents
• On flat roofs (EPDM/TPO/Mod-Bit): open seams, loose terminations, popped fasteners, edge-metal movement
• Interior signs: ceiling stains, drips during storms, musty odors
