Inspect Your Roof Before Hurricane Season

The Atlantic Hurricane Season runs June 1 – November 30. Experts forecast an Above Average Season with up to 20 storms. Before a major storm hits South Florida, your roof could be at risk. Many Palm Beach homeowners miss early signs of damage that can lead to major leaks and insurance headaches.

Common Post-Hurricane Roof Issues:

  • Missing shingles or tiles
  • Loose flashing or torn underlayment
  • Water stains on ceilings or attic beams

Why You Need a Professional Roof Inspection

Not all damage is visible from the ground. A licensed roofing contractor can catch hidden damage and document it properly for insurance claims.

Pro tip: Don’t wait until you see a leak—by then, mold and wood rot may already be setting in.

What We Look for During a Post-Storm Inspection:

  • Roof deck condition
  • Drainage issues and ponding water
  • Impact damage from flying debris

Shingle Roofs: Affordable & Familiar

Which Roof Is Best for Your Home?

If you’re near the water or planning to stay long-term, metal offers better long-term ROI. For inland homes or budget-conscious projects, shingles are still a great choice.
