Signs of Wind Damage on Your Roof

Some wind damage is obvious. Some is not. Always get a professional inspection after a significant storm — the signs below may point to damage that needs to be documented before you contact your insurer.

Visible from Ground Level

Missing shingles or large sections completely blown off

Shingles visibly lifted, creased, or folded at edges

Missing or damaged ridge cap along the peak

Soffits blown out or hanging down

Gutters pulled away from fascia or dented

Debris on roof from nearby trees or structures

Only Visible from the Roof

Broken adhesive seal strips on shingles that look intact

Lifted shingles at rake edges and eaves

Flashing pulled away from chimney, walls, or dormers

Granule accumulation in valleys from storm impact

Cracked or displaced pipe boot flashing

Nail pops from deck movement during high wind

Had high winds recently? Don't wait to inspect.

Broken seal strips cause leaks months after the storm. Document now before the evidence fades.

Education

Why Wind Damage Often Goes Undetected

Seal Strip Failure

Shingles have a factory adhesive seal strip. Wind breaks this bond without removing the shingle. The shingle stays in place but is no longer watertight. Water enters at the next rain event — sometimes weeks later with no visible cause.

Flashing Separation

High wind creates uplift pressure that can pull metal flashing away from chimneys, walls, and valleys. Even small gaps in flashing allow gallons of water to enter during a normal rain — and the entry point is far from where it appears inside.

Why Granules Matter

Wind erosion accelerates granule loss on shingles. Granules protect the asphalt mat from UV degradation. Once the granules are gone, shingles crack, curl, and fail years ahead of schedule. This is a claim-eligible damage type even if no shingles are missing.
