Did a recent storm blow some shingles off your roof? Do you have shingles that are cracked and faded and need to be replaced? Damaged or missing shingles are not only highly noticeable, but they also put your home at risk of water penetration and leaks and a host of associated problems, such as mold and mildew growth, wood rot, shingle blistering, etc.

- Asphalt
- Cedar shake

Shingle Blow-off
High winds and storms can cause shingle blow-off, where asphalt and other types of shingles are torn off the roof decking. The most common reason for shingle blow-off is improper shingle installation, particularly along the side edges where strong winds can get under the overhang and, if they are not fastened correctly, can rip the shingles from the roof. Note: not all shingle blow-off is caused by improper installation – sometimes the force of wind is just too much for the shingles to handle.
It’s always a good idea to visually inspect your own roof from the ground after every storm. If you notice any missing shingles, don’t wait – call R.M. Banning for shingle repair as soon as possible! If you hold off on shingle repair until you see water damage in your home, it may already be too late – it could take weeks or even months for water damage to appear, and by then the damage to the interior structure of your roof decking could be too great. If you need shingle repair in Northern Virginia, call now – you don’t want to wait until your roof is consumed with mold and wood rot!
