Storm Damage Roof Checklist for Missouri Homeowners

Missouri's unpredictable weather can take a toll on your roof, leaving it vulnerable to damage from hail, high winds, and even tornadoes. As a homeowner, it's crucial to be proactive and inspect your roof after severe storms to prevent further damage and ensure your family's safety. At All Trades Restoration Services, we understand the importance of a sturdy roof, and we've created this comprehensive storm damage roof checklist to help Missouri homeowners like you.

Exterior Inspection

1. Shingles: Look for missing, cracked, or curled shingles, which can indicate wind or hail damage. Pay close attention to the edges and corners of your roof, as these areas are more susceptible to damage.
2. Granules: Check for excessive granule loss, which can leave your shingles vulnerable to UV rays and moisture intrusion.
3. Flashing: Inspect the flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights for any signs of damage or separation, which can lead to leaks.
4. Gutters and Downspouts: Ensure that your gutters and downspouts are securely attached and free of debris, which can cause water to back up and potentially damage your roof.

Interior Inspection

1. Attic: Carefully enter your attic and look for any signs of water stains, moisture, or daylight coming through the roof. These can indicate leaks or holes in your roof.
2. Ceilings: Inspect ceilings on all levels of your home for water stains, bubbling, or sagging, which can signify a roof leak.
3. Walls: Check interior walls for any signs of moisture or discoloration, which could be a result of water intrusion from a damaged roof.
