Tornado Damage

Roof Repair Professionals for Tornado Damage

Wind damage is often the most common type of roof damage during a tornado, from lifting loose shingles off your roof to blowing shrapnel right against it. Even the mildest tornadoes have winds ranging from 70 mph to 90 mph, which can cause a lot of damage to your home even if you’re not in the direct path of the funnel. At Bergens Roofing, we always recommend routine maintenance on your home to ensure no areas remain vulnerable during any storm or disaster.

Tornado Damage You Might Expect

High winds can cause just as much damage as other severe weather conditions, if not more. They can lift and rip away the shingles on your roof, blow heavy objects against your home, and, if your roof has issues that remain unrepaired, your roof is far more likely to be severely damaged. Chimneys and skylights are all vulnerable parts of your roof during a tornado or storm. We recommend having these areas closely inspected on an annual basis to make sure they are not susceptible to leaks.

How We Help You Prepare for Tornado Damage

Choose High-Quality Roofing Materials

Bergens Roofing believes in using the highest quality materials on the market and staying on top of the most up-to-date installation practices to offer maximum protection for your home. Shingle technology continues to get better and more innovative over time. There are even wind-resistant shingles you can install that are made to give your roof a better chance of holding itself up against a storm. Talk to one of our roofing specialists to find what will work ideal for your home.

Emergency Roof Repairs

We believe that everyone deserves to live in a safe home with a reliable roof, and that includes in the middle of a storm. It usually doesn’t make sense to do a full repair or replacement before we are able to inspect your roof, and that is not always possible during a storm. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t try to minimize the damage. If you are experiencing water leaks in the middle of a storm, contact us right away and we’ll help you come up with a temporary solution to salvage the situation as much as possible.

Schedule Annual Inspections

One of the most effective ways to prepare for tornado damage is to make sure your roof is in its good shape. An easy way to do this is by scheduling routine roof inspections and staying on top of necessary roof repairs. Every year, roofing standards change, and there could be an improvement we could make to your roof that will make it stronger and more reliable during a storm. Or, in the perfect scenario, there will be nothing wrong with your roof, and you will at least have peace of mind!

When it comes to all your roof-related needs, even in the event of a tornado, Bergens Roofing is here for you. We are dedicated to keeping our community safe from the elements. Let’s make sure your roof is ready for anything that comes its way.
