Case Study Importance of Timely Roof Inspections After Hailstorms

OKLAHOMA CITY - July 24, 2024 - PRLog -- In March 2024, a local homeowner contacted Triple Diamond Construction after noticing ceiling stains in their kitchen and dining room. An in-depth inspection revealed significant hail and wind damage to the roof, garage, windows, and gutters. The damage was traced back to two major weather events: a storm on April 19, 2023, that produced 1.25-inch hail and another on September 19, 2023, with 0.75-inch hail and high winds.

"Hail damage is often invisible from the ground and can go unnoticed until significant interior damage occurs," said Greg Derr, owner of Triple Diamond Construction. "Our recent case study demonstrates how getting a roof inspection after a hailstorm (https://triplediamondok.com/roof-inspection-after-a-hailstorm/) can prevent minor damage from escalating into major, costly repairs."

When hail impacts a roof, it can knock off the protective granule layer of shingles, exposing the felt layer underneath. Over time, these exposed areas worsen, leading to roof leaks that can cause extensive interior damage. The case study revealed that early inspections and repairs could have saved the homeowner from the substantial costs associated with interior water damage.

Key takeaways for homeowners include:

• Prompt Inspections: Schedule a professional roof inspection immediately after a hailstorm to identify and repair damage early.
• Preventive Measures: Regular roof inspections and maintenance can extend the lifespan of a roof and save money on future repairs.
• Awareness: Understand that hail damage is not always visible from the ground and requires a professional assessment.

Triple Diamond Construction is committed to educating homeowners on the importance of roof maintenance and providing top-quality roofing services. Homeowners are encouraged to contact Triple Diamond Construction to schedule a roof inspection and ensure their homes are protected from potential hail damage.
