How Summer Hail and Storms Can Impact Your Home

If you are a Kansas City, Denver, or Wichita resident, you very well know that the areas the Farha Roofing residential roofing services cover are nearing the end of their summer storm seasons. Summer storms are often brief, but powerful, bringing destruction, heavy winds, rain, and hail.

Today, our residential roofing services team is discussing the impact summer hail and storms can have on your roof. Learn more about the risks and warning signs of damage below.

How Summer Hail and Storms Are Impacting Your Roof

Hail Damage

Hail damage can wreak havoc on our roofs. Every piece of hail that hits your roof has the potential of creating small indentations. Overtime, these small indentations can lead to cracks, causing water leaks and interior water damage.

In addition to the damage they inflict on your actual roof, hail can also cause damage to your guttering and downspouts. When this damage occurs, your guttering system is no longer able to properly move water away from your home. This can cause damage throughout your entire home, including pooling water on the roof, water damage on your walls, damage to your foundation, and potential flooding in your basement.

Wind Damage

A hailstorm is never just a hailstorm. It brings with it strong winds and rain as well, which can both cause damage on their own. Heavy enough winds have the ability to not only rip a shingle right off your roof, but they can remove the underlayment and damage the entire roofing structure as well.

Summer storms, while frustrating, are a fact of life in this area of the country and that is why the Farha Roofing team is here to help you! Give our team a call to schedule a post-storm inspection and we’ll come up with a plan customized for you and your home.
