Wind Damage Repair in Ridgecrest, California

The desert wind is a Ridgecrest reality. The spring wind events bring strong gusts that lift the heat-weakened shingles and carry the sand and the debris. A wind-damaged roof is a roof that is ready to leak. Wind damage repair in Ridgecrest means securing the roof after the wind event and preventing the next problem.

Signs Your Ridgecrest Roof Has Wind Damage

• Missing shingles — the wind lifted them off the deck
• Lifted or curled shingle edges — the wind got under the corners
• Damaged flashing — the metal at the chimney and the valleys is loose
• Debris and sand marks on the roof — the wind carried the debris onto the roof
• Granules in the gutters after a wind event — the wind shook the loose granules loose

Why Ridgecrest Roofs Get Wind Damage

The desert wind is the main cause. The spring wind events bring gusts that can reach 50 miles per hour or more, and the wind lifts the shingles on the exposed slopes.

The heat-weakened shingles make the wind damage worse. The asphalt that baked all summer is brittle and lifts more easily.
