The Menace of Storm Damage

Storms, whether they come in the form of severe thunderstorms, cyclones or hailstorms can cause damage that ranges from minor inconveniences to catastrophic destruction. Common forms of storm damage include:

Roof Damage: High winds can lift roofing sheets and tear off gutters, exposing the underlying structure to water infiltration. Heavy rainfall and hail can cause leaks and punctures in roofing materials.

Water Infiltration: Heavy rainfall and winds can cause water infiltration causing structural issues, mould growth, and damage to interior spaces.

Debris Impact: Flying debris, such as branches, can cause significant damage to roofs, leading to costly repairs.

Wind Uplift: Powerful winds can lift and displace roofing materials, undermining the integrity of the entire roof.

Hail Damage: Hailstorms can pummel traditional roofing materials, causing granule loss, cracks, and punctures.
