How to assess your roof damage from recent tornadoes

blog 3

Some experts say the storms are part of an alarming new trend: Tornadoes are spinning up more frequently in Louisiana these days. A recent analysis by E&E News of tornado activity in the Southeastern United States over the past 70 years shows that tornado activity in the Deep South occurs far more frequently than once thought.

The recent tornados affected many homeowners in the Shreveport, La. area and are still looking for a reputable roofing company. Unfortunately, some homeowners have yet to make repairs. Many are at risk of losing their insurance coverage without making these costly repairs.

Signs Your Roof Has Been Damaged by Severe Weather or a Tornado

Sometimes, homeowners are unaware that there may be an issue with their roofs. Signs of a problem may not be as prevalent as you thought, so here are some not-so-obvious signs your roof may have been damaged by a severe storm or even a tornado:

  • Loose or missing roofing shingles, tiles, or panels.
  • Bent, curled, or misplaced roofing shingles.
  • Dented roofing shingles or panels.
  • Broken structural beams and other components.
  • Leaks inside your home.
  • A heavy amount of shingle granules is building up in gutters or on the ground.
  • A sagging roof.
  • Higher-than-expected utility bills.
