Over time, roofs can become damaged in a number of different ways. Wind, rain, snow, ice, fallen tree branches, animals and UV rays are some of the most common causes for roof damage and deterioration.

Wind: Strong winds can cause shingles to become loose and fall off. When shingles fall off, moisture can get into the ceiling and cause a roof leak.

Rain and Hail: Asphalt shingles have a mineral coating on them that can be broken down over time by rain and hail. The shingle can become weakened, fragile and prone to breaking.

Snow and Ice: When there is snow and ice, the process of melting and refreezing can lift the shingles and melted snow can cause leaks and moisture damage.

Fallen Tree Branches: Trees can lose their branches because of wind, snow or other harsh weather. Tree branches or even fallen trees can cause a lot of damage to roofs.

Animals: Wildlife like squirrels, raccoons and rodents can chew holes in the roof, tear away at shingles and cause damage to your home. If you see animals on your roof, contact us at Critter Authority and we can give you a free estimate for wildlife trapping, deterrents, exclusions and other removal services.

UV Damage: Ultraviolet rays can cause shingles to become dry and brittle. If your roof gets constant, direct sunlight, you will need to have an inspection completed.
