Did you feel the air pressure change? Did you know that the center of the storm passed right over east Tennessee? Not only did it bring heavy and prolonged rains and wind, it also led to storm damage to homes and businesses. If you even suspect you have storm damage, call your roofer for a roof inspection in Knoxville, TN. After all, you only have a limited time to file your storm damage insurance claim.

Signs you have storm damage

Perhaps the most evident is when you find shingles in your yard or your gutters or siding have blown off. However, it’s not always clear that you need a roof inspection in Knoxville, TN. Here are some other signs that you need to call your roofer:

  • Misaligned shingles: this occurs when the wind blows the shingles loose from the roof deck but not completely off.
  • Bent shingles: When a strong wind blows from one direction, the shingles can become lifted. This can lead to their inability to lay flat again.
  • Roof leak: Although not all roof leaks are the result of storm damage, if you’ve never had a roof leak previously, it may be a sign you have storm damage.

The key is in knowing your home and roof and how it looks when in good repair. This can help even a novice spot storm damage and quickly report it to their insurance company.
