Frisco Roofing Contractor Discusses Damage Caused by Missing Shingles
Frisco Roofing Contractor J. D. Dunphy, President of Tornado Alley Roofing, talks about roof damage caused by missing shingles
Missing shingles are warning signs of other more extensive damage that may be hiding beneath your roof. The subsequent damage will become more extensive if the problem goes undetected or worse still remains un-restored. Wind driven rain finds an easy pathway through these missing shingles into your attic and ultimately into your homes interior.
Many homeowners harbor a false notion that just because they don’t see a water stain on their ceiling there must not be any leaks in the roof. For a leak to show up in your home, water must first soak through your shingles, underlayment, and plywood; it will then saturate your attic insulation and finally your sheetrock. All this could take several weeks or even months. When a homeowner detects a leak, based upon observation of a ceiling stain, following a rainstorm, they often assume that the roof began to leak as a direct result of that particular storm. Most of the time this is not the case
Water could be rotting your home’s structure if the leak remained undetected for a protracted period of time. Unattended, mold and mildew may even start developing in your attic and behind your walls and ceiling. This caused a MAJOR health risk for your entire family.
Stop the damage before it spreads by having Tornado Alley Roofing conduct a 17 Point Diagnostic Evaluation. The Evaluation involves a thorough inspection of both your attic and roof, including the shingles on the main area (field), ridge and valleys as well as vents, chimney and all protrusions.
