April Showers Brings May Flowers

We may be nearing the end of April but the showers don’t look like they are slowing down this season. While the rain is always welcome, it also has the potential of causing damage to roofs and homes. Rain-related damage comes in numerous forms. If you suspect your roof has any damage due to the recent rain, give Ideal Precision Roofing a call.. it’s the only call you need to make.

Rain damage can cause lots of problems and be a risk to a faulty or old roof. Most damage due to rain, is due in part to low quality materials, design flaw or any other wear and tear from old age. Rain damage can cause your roof to degrade quickly, resulting in leaks, and even structural damage. Unless the more obvious signs, such as water in your attic, or water stains on your ceiling or walls, show themselves, you may not be concerned about a damaged roof. If you do see any of these more obvious signs, give Ideal Precision Roofing a call for a free estimate and inspection.

Signs of damage due to a heavy rain storm:

If you see shingles on the ground below your roof, after a storm, this is a sign of rain damage. Shingles become loose, leaving bare spots, which can then cause water damage to your roof’s structure. Frequent storms can also cause a wearing off of the protective granules covering the shingles.  This leaves the shingles more vulnerable to rain damage. If you believe to have missing shingles, give Ideal Precision Roofing a call to ensure no further damage occurs.

When rain damages the integrity of your roof, water can find a way underneath your shingles, which causes your shingles to warp, thus causing the integrity of your roof to be at risk.  This will be apparent in the curling of your shingles or buckling in your roof. If there is buckling, most likely water damage has occurred. This can also happen due to faulty instillation or poor quality shingles.
