Warning signs

What are the signs of storm damage on a roof?

Common signs of storm damage on a roof include missing, lifted or creased shingles, cracked ridge caps, granules collecting in gutters or on the ground, bent gutters, soffit or fascia, and water stains on ceilings or walls. Some damage cannot be seen from the ground, so an inspection after a major storm is worth scheduling.

Signs you can see from the ground

  • Missing or lifted shingles, or shingles in the yard
  • Shingle granules in gutters or on the ground
  • Bent or damaged gutters, soffit or fascia
  • Tree limbs or debris on the roof

Signs on the roof and inside

  • Creased, cracked or torn shingles, or cracked tiles
  • A dented or cracked ridge cap
  • Loose or bent flashing around vents and walls
  • Water stains on ceilings or walls after the storm
  • Daylight or wet insulation in the attic

After the storm

What should you do after a storm damages your roof?

After a storm damages your roof, stay safe first, then protect what is inside the home, take photos of the damage from the ground, and contact your insurance agent if you plan to file a claim. Then schedule a roof inspection with a licensed roofing contractor, and check the license before anyone starts work.

Watch out for storm chasersAfter big storms, out-of-area crews often go door to door. Before you sign anything, look up the contractor's license on the Florida DBPR license search and ask where their local office is. NB Roofs is State Certified Roofing Contractor License #CCC1328686, with an office at 1014 W Dixie Ave in Leesburg.
  • Stay safe

    Stay off the roof, keep away from downed power lines, and watch for sagging ceilings inside.

  • Protect the inside of the home

    Move belongings away from leaks and catch dripping water in buckets.

  • Take photos from the ground

    Photograph missing shingles, debris and any water damage inside, with the date.

  • Contact your insurance agent

    If you plan to file a claim, ask your agent how to report the damage and what your policy covers.

  • Schedule a roof inspection

    A licensed roofing contractor can check the roof up close and tell you whether it needs repair or replacement. Request an inspection.

Our process

How does NB Roofs handle storm damage?

Storm damage roof repair with NB Roofs follows six steps, from the first inspection to the final check and cleanup.

  1. Inspect the roof

    NB Roofs checks the roof covering, flashing, ridge caps and penetrations, plus the attic and ceilings for water.

  2. Explain the options

    You see what was found and whether repair or replacement makes sense, with upfront pricing before work starts.

  3. Permits when needed

    A roof replacement gets a building permit, and in The Villages an Architectural Review application if your project needs one.

  4. Protect the property

    The crew protects landscaping and the outside of the home before work begins.

  5. Repair or replace

    Damaged roofing, flashing and decking are repaired or replaced to the manufacturer's specifications and the Florida Building Code.

  6. Inspect and clean up

    The work is checked, including permit inspections on a replacement, and the crew cleans up the site.

Central Florida storms

What kinds of storms damage roofs in Central Florida?

Roofs in Central Florida take damage from hurricanes and tropical storms, strong summer thunderstorms with high winds and sometimes hail, and tree limbs that fall onto the roof. Wind lifts and tears shingles, hail cracks roofing and knocks off granules, and heavy rain finds any opening the storm leaves behind.

  • Hurricanes and tropical storms

    The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, according to the National Hurricane Center. High winds lift shingles and damage flashing and ridge caps.

  • Summer thunderstorms and hail

    Strong summer storms bring gusty winds and heavy rain, and hail can crack roofing and knock granules off shingles.

  • Falling limbs and debris

    Branches and debris blown onto the roof can puncture shingles, crack tiles and damage the deck underneath.

Questions

Storm Damage Roof FAQs for The Villages Homeowners

  • What should I do right after a storm damages my roof?

    Right after a storm damages your roof, stay off the roof and away from downed power lines, move belongings away from any leaks, and take photos of the damage from the ground. If you plan to file a claim, contact your insurance agent. Then call NB Roofs at (352) 269-2157 to schedule a storm damage inspection.

  • How do I know if my roof has storm damage?

    Signs of storm damage include missing, lifted or creased shingles, granules in the gutters, a cracked ridge cap, bent flashing or gutters, and new water stains on ceilings. Some damage, such as creased shingles or broken seals, is hard to see from the ground, so a roof inspection after a major storm is the reliable way to check.

  • Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage to a roof?

    Whether homeowners insurance covers storm damage to a roof depends on your policy, the cause of the damage, and the roof's condition before the storm. Many Florida policies also have a separate hurricane deductible. Ask your insurance agent or read your policy, and see the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation for consumer resources.

  • Should I repair or replace a storm-damaged roof?

    A storm-damaged roof can usually be repaired when the damage is limited to one section, such as a few missing shingles or a damaged ridge cap. If damage is spread across the roof, or the roof was already worn before the storm, a roof replacement may be the better option. An inspection shows which applies.

  • How can I avoid storm chaser roofers?

    To avoid storm chaser roofers, look up the contractor's license on the Florida DBPR license search, ask where their local office is, and do not sign anything until you understand the work and the price. NB Roofs is State Certified Roofing Contractor License #CCC1328686, with an office in Leesburg.
