Severe weather can strike at any time. When it does, it’s your home that you count on for protection from the elements. One of the areas of your home is impacted the most by severe weather is your roof. If you encounter any damage during a storm and need emergency weather services, be sure to call a roofer who can handle every need.

Brutal Storms
Living in Florida, there are so many different storms that can affect your home. From the strong pop up thunderstorms that seem to happen all the time to tropical storms and hurricanes, your roof withstands a lot of adversity. Your roof has probably stood up to the test of many brutal storms. But still, after each one, you should at the very least do a visual inspection to make sure no damage has occurred. If you’ve been hit particularly hard and need a company that provides emergency weather services, you should be familiar with what such a company can do for you.

Roofing Companies
Roofing companies that provide emergency storm services know what you need immediately. Most will get to your location as quickly as possible to install tarp over part or all of your roof so that water damage to the structure of your home and to everything inside is kept to a minimum. Some roofing companies even have a priority scheduling service. If you’ve had your roof replaced by a company or if you subscribe to their maintenance program, you could be moved ahead of other callers because of your past dealings. Your roofing company will also be able to meet you and your insurance claims adjuster to survey the damage if that’s something that would help you get your home and life back together.

Precautions
Never take your roof for granted. You should adopt a scheduled inspection schedule. It doesn’t have to be complicated. After every storm do a visual inspection from a distance to make sure nothing looks out of alignment and do an up close inspection to make sure there is no damage to any individual shingles, joints, boots, gutters or eves.  Also do an inspection of your attic regularly to make sure there are no water spots on beams or rafters that look like they’re getting bigger. Taking care of small problems now could help you avoid big problems later.
