How to Spot Roof Damage After a Storm

Not all storm damage is obvious from the ground. Knowing what to look for helps you catch it before it turns into an interior leak.

What to Look For

Missing, lifted, or bruised shingles, granules collecting at downspouts, damaged or displaced flashing, dented vents and gutters, and any new ceiling stains inside. Bruising from hail is easy to miss and matters for a claim.

Document Before You Call

Photograph everything with dates. Then get a forensic inspection. Under Louisiana Act 144, Acadiana Roof Restoration documents the roof and can walk your adjuster through the findings while you stay in control of the claim.
