Call (201) 441-1542Note 01What to do if you have roof damage from a storm?
Make the house safe first: stay clear of down wires and anything hanging from a tree, catch any water inside, and photograph the roof from the ground and the damage indoors. Do not climb up to look. Then call, and say whether water is coming in, which decides whether it is cover tonight or a repair on the next dry day.
Note 02Can a tree limb damage the roof deck?
Yes, and it often does more damage below the shingles than on them. A heavy limb can crack boards and rafters, so after a strike the attic is checked from inside before anything on top is priced. Do not climb up to move the limb yourself.
Note 03What does wind damage on shingles look like?
Missing shingles are obvious. Less obvious are shingles that lifted, creased across the top and lay back down, broken seal strips, and loose ridge caps. Creased shingles have lost their grip and are replaced, which is why every slope is read, the steep ones from brackets.
