Houston Wind Storm

Severe weather caused by front coming in
Were you awakened last night by the howling wind?

If your roof is more than 5 years old, it is possible that the wind has blown some shingles back, lifting and curling them allowing water to penetrate underneath. This causes problems and decay over time. Water driven up under the shingles does not dry out properly and will start to grow mold and mildew.

As a result, your 20 or 30 year roof was just down graded by the storm to a 10 or 15 year roof. Mold and mildew begins a decay process that breaks down the shingles and works on the paper under the layer of shingles. Roof failure resulting in leaks and further damage, including attic and even interior damage, is likely to occur.

Get your roof inspected now to ensure there are still years of life left in it. If we find there are minor repairs needed, we'll estimate the repairs at no cost to you. Visit our website for more information and to schedule your appointment.
