Introduction

Chicago's weather can be unpredictable, with severe storms that can cause significant damage to your home. High winds, hail, and heavy rain can take a toll on your roof, leading to leaks, structural damage, and other issues.

At Roof Harbor, we’re here to guide you through the process and ensure your home gets the protection it needs.

Recognizing Storm Damage

After a storm, it's essential to inspect your roof for any signs of damage. Here are some common indicators that your roof may need repairs or replacement:

  1. Missing or Damaged Shingles: High winds can rip shingles off your roof or cause them to curl and crack.

  2. Hail Damage: Hail can leave dents, cracks, or pockmarks on shingles, which can compromise their integrity.

  3. Leaking Roof: Water stains on your ceiling or walls are clear signs of a roof leak.

  4. Debris on Roof: Fallen branches or other debris can damage shingles and flashing, leading to potential leaks.

  5. Granules in Gutters: Finding asphalt granules in your gutters is a sign that your shingles are deteriorating.

Steps to Take After a Storm

If you suspect your roof has been damaged by a storm, follow these steps to ensure you get the assistance you need:

  1. Document the Damage: Take clear photos and videos of any visible damage to your roof and property. This will be crucial for your insurance claim.

  2. Contact Roof Harbor: Schedule a professional roof inspection with our experienced team. We will assess the extent of the damage and provide a detailed report.
