Wind Damage Repair in Lauderhill, Florida

The wind is the most common roofing killer in Lauderhill. The hurricane season and the summer thunderstorms bring the gusts that lift the shingles, pull the flashing, and strip the ridge caps. Wind damage repair in Lauderhill means re-securing the roof before the next rain drives into the exposed areas.

Signs Your Lauderhill Roof Has Wind Damage

• Lifted or flapping shingles - the wind has weakened the nails
• Missing shingles - the wind has pulled them completely free
• Torn or pulled flashing - the wind has worked it away from the wall
• Missing ridge caps - the wind has stripped the ridge
• Leaks after a windy storm - the wind opened the entry points

Why Lauderhill Roofs Get Wind Damage

The Florida wind is the main cause. The hurricane and the tropical storms bring the sustained wind and the gusts that Broward County experiences every season. The wind acts on the shingle edges - it gets underneath and lifts them, and each gust pulls harder on the lifted edge.

The roof age is the second factor. The aged shingles have lost the pliability that lets them flex, and the nails have loosened over the years. The older roofs in Lauderhill fail first in the wind.

The installation quality is the third factor. The shingles nailed to the correct pattern and the flashing secured properly survive the wind. The roofs with the poor nailing and the loose flashing fail.

Windproofing Your Lauderhill Roof

• Inspect the flashing before the hurricane season - the loose flashing fails first

How the Wind Attacks a Roof

The wind does not attack a roof evenly. It gets under the shingle edge and lifts it, and each gust pulls harder on the lifted edge. The wind hits the ridge caps first - they are the exposed high points. It pulls the flashing away from the walls and the chimneys. It works the nails loose over the years. The Lauderhill roof in the wind zone takes this attack every hurricane season, and the roofs that are installed to the wind code survive. The ones with the weak nailing fail.

The inland location means the humidity and the heat do the work, and the algae and the UV are the wear factors the materials have to beat.

The Repair Window

The wind damage in Lauderhill has a narrow repair window. The lifted shingle that is re-secured quickly is a small repair. The lifted shingle that waits through the next rain is a leak, and the leak rots the decking. The homeowners who inspect after every windy storm and call at the first sign of the lift catch the damage cheap. The ones who wait for the visible leak pay for the decking and the interior too.
