Often after a strong storm, your roof will withstand the worst of the damage. For example, rain, hail, wind, snow, and ice can cause the deterioration of your asphalt shingles. Contacting a roofing contractor after a strong storm is a good idea so that they can inspect your roof and identify any damage that occurred. By identifying the damage early, you can prevent problems from progressing extensively.


Another element that often causes wear to asphalt shingles is the sun or extreme heat. You should contact a roofer if you live in a warm area with fluctuating temperatures or your roof experiences extended time of direct sunlight, to inspect your roof to insure there are no issues or repairs needed.
