Florida is commonly known for its warm temperatures and beautiful beaches. It’s also known for its severe thunderstorms, torrential rains and if the conditions are right, hailstorms. For example, in mid-April, ABC News reported that severe thunderstorms damaged numerous buildings in Central Florida, and that some areas were hit by ping-pong sized hail.
Suffice to say, if you suspect your roofing system has been damaged by high winds, flying debris, or hail, you’ll want to have your roof inspected ASAP.
Starting from the top
The most obvious reason to call a roofing contractor in Naples is to have the damage assessed. And, as we’ve noted many times in the past, ignoring a problem won’t make the problem go away. For example, if you sprained your ankle, you aren’t going to go for a run or walk to the park as if the sprain didn’t exist. Instead, you’d have your injury evaluated by a doctor, you’d wrap it and if needed, you’d buy some crutches. If your roof has been damaged in a storm and you don’t call a roofer, you won’t be doing your roof (or yourself) any favors.
Roofing inspections are free
Reputable, licensed roofing contractors will inspect your roof for free. In some of our past blogs we talked about the reasons you should have your roof inspected twice a year, however, if your area has recently been hit by a torrential storm, you should have it inspected shortly thereafter. Not only will this allow you to identify potential damage quickly, if there is damage, the cost to repair it may be covered by your homeowner’s insurance policy. The staff at Kleinberger Corporation has years of experiencing homeowners just like you with situations just like this. If your roof needs to be repaired due to storm damage, we’ll coordinate with your policy holder directly. Not only will this allow us to get the repairs started right away, it will make the entire process a lot less stressful for you.
