HAIL DAMAGE
Renewing Your Home’s Protection
It’s not surprising that many homeowners find it appealing. Sometimes, a simple and seemingly gentle hail can turn out to be a disaster. Put simply, when you don’t take care of your roof.
Different homes make use of different roofing systems. Nevertheless, one of the most popular roofing systems being used is the composition roof. This system uses asphalt shingles and may come in 3 types, depending on the manufacturer you purchase the material from. The composition roof types are 3-tab, laminated, and premium. These composition roof types are usually distinguished by their durability and added features like finishes.
Composition roofs are not only affordable, but they can also be very durable. These are simple to set up and require minimal maintenance. It’s not surprising that many homeowners find it appealing.
Composition roofs can be tough; however, hail is one of the few things that can and will leave a mark in this type of roofing system. Regardless of how resilient asphalt may be, we cannot ignore the severe and destructive impact of hail. That’s why it’s essential to inspect your roof, as well as other parts of your home, following a hailstorm.
