Prepare Your Roof for Summer Storms in Charlotte, NC

May 28, 2017by AdvancedEMSRoofing

Summer is well on its way in Charlotte, which means it won’t be long before we experience frequent thunderstorms in the area. And proper preparation is essential to ensure your home stays safe and comfortable throughout the season. Here are Roof King’s tips to prepare your roof for summer storms.

Prepare your roof for summer storms

Heavy wind and rain from a severe thunderstorm can cause extensive damage to your roof. Fortunately, there are precautions you can take to lessen the storm’s toll on your home. The first step is to inspect the trees around your property. Severe thunderstorms can cause large branches, or even entire trees, to fall on the roof of your home. Needless to say, this can completely destroy your roof, so it’s important to trim back any branches near the house and remove any dead limbs. Also, clean out your gutters. If your gutters are clogged with leaves, twigs and debris, they won’t be able to handle the heavy rainfall of a summer storm. This can cause serious damage to your roof and the rest of your home.

After the storm

Once the thunderstorm has left your area, it’s important to assess any damage it caused. Check to make sure that all shingles are still in place. If some have been blown away, check to see that the rubber membrane underneath is still intact. If you have any skylights, domes or solar panels, inspect them to make sure they’re not cracked or broken. In addition, make sure that water isn’t collecting and creating puddles in any flat areas of the roof. Finally, find a safe place to scan your yard for any tree limbs that have been cracked and are on their way to falling down.
