    Protecting Your Roof from Pacific Northwest Storms

    Protecting Your Roof from Pacific Northwest Storms

    The Pacific Northwest is known for its intense winter storms. High winds can tear off shingles, and heavy rain can exploit any vulnerability in your roof, leading to significant water damage inside your home.

    Pre-Storm Preparation

    The best defense is a good offense. Have your roof inspected annually by a professional. Trim overhanging tree branches that could break and fall onto your roof during high winds. Ensure your attic is properly ventilated to prevent ice dams in colder weather.

    Post-Storm Inspection

    After a severe storm, safely inspect your roof from the ground using binoculars. Look for missing, cracked, or curling shingles. Check your gutters for an accumulation of asphalt granules, which indicates roof wear.

    Emergency Roof Tarping

    If a storm causes a leak, the immediate priority is to stop water from entering your home. Restoration 1 provides emergency roof tarping services to secure your property until permanent repairs can be made.
