Missing Shingles – If you see shingles on the ground below your roof, after a storm, this is a sign of rain damage. Shingles become loose, leaving bare spots, which can then cause water damage to your roof’s structure. Frequent storms can also cause a wearing off of the protective granules covering the shingles. This leaves the shingles more vulnerable to rain damage. If you notice missing shingles, or evidence of the protective granules, in your downspout, contact Mountain Star Roofing.
Curling Shingles and Buckling – When rain damages the integrity of your roof, water can find a way underneath your shingles, causing warping. This will be apparent in the curling of your shingles or buckling in your roof. If there is buckling, most likely water damage has occurred. This is when you need to call on a Professional roofing contractor for a repair estimate.
Rotting or Mold – When you see mold inside your attic, that means water is coming from somewhere, most likely your rain damaged roof. It may not always be obvious that you have a roof leak due to a recent storm or rain event so it’s important to check your roof or attic every rain season. Another phenomenon that occurs in the colder regions is called ice damming. This is where there is a build up of ice in a region on your roof that you can not generally see. This does not occur in the desert Southwest, but can occur in Southern and Northern New Mexico.
It may be as simple as flashing that’s been pulled away and gone unnoticed, letting rain enter your attic. Wood-rot is common if the water has been standing a while, either on your roof or inside your attic. In cases where fungus is growing and visible on your roof, that’s usually caused by trees and vegetation. You will want to have your roof inspected as fungus can be a sign of damaged shingles.
Rain and storm damage may not always be a reason for complete roof replacement. You may simply be in need of repairs, and that’s much easier. However, the only way to know for sure is to have your roof inspected by the professionals at Mountain Star.
