Wind Damage FAQs
Wind damage can begin at speeds as low as 45-50 mph, especially on older roofs. Severe damage typically occurs at 70+ mph. However, even moderate winds can cause damage if shingles are already compromised or if the wind hits at certain angles.
Wind creates uplift pressure, and this pressure is strongest at corners and edges of your roof. That's why you'll often see damage start at these areas first. Proper installation with extra fasteners in these zones helps prevent wind damage.
We don't recommend waiting. Even minor wind damage exposes your roof to water infiltration, which can lead to leaks, mold, and structural damage. Small repairs now prevent major expenses later.
Yes, most homeowner policies cover wind damage. We document all damage thoroughly and work with your insurance company to ensure your claim is handled properly.
