Wind-Damaged Shingle Repair in Apple River, IL

Wind-Damaged Shingle Repair in Apple River, IL

Wind damage on a shingle roof follows a pattern. It starts at the edges: rakes, eaves, ridge and hips, where wind pressure is highest. Shingles lift, the seal breaks, and once a tab is flapping, it either creases or tears off at the nail line.

Apple River, IL Shingle Roof Repair helps homeowners in Apple River, IL find shingle roof repair crews for wind-damaged shingle repair. The crew will walk the roof edge first, then the field, and check for:

• Missing tabs and full strips
• Creased shingles that are still attached but cracked
• Broken seal strips where a shingle lifts easily by hand
• Nails pulled through the mat

Repairs use replacement asphalt shingles nailed with the high-wind pattern the manufacturer lists, usually six nails per strip instead of four, and hand-sealed with cement at the tabs.

If a lot of the roof is affected, the crew will tell you and help you document it. A few torn tabs, though, are a straightforward fix that keeps the rest of the roof sealed.

After a windy night, take a look from the ground. If you see gaps or shingle pieces on the lawn, call (844) 238-0976. Apple River, IL Shingle Roof Repair will connect you with a crew in Apple River, IL.
