In summary: Our inspection found that this roof is approximately 12-15 years old and has had enough hail damage to warrant the homeowner calling their insurance carrier. There are numerous exposed nail heads that have rusted, and the flashing behind the chimney and skylight need the rust removed and painted. Also, the mortar cap on the chimney is crumbly in a couple of locations.

With a new roof and some minor other repairs, this roof last for many years to come (or until the next major hail event in the neighborhood)!

For a detailed inspection of your roof system, please call the experts at Up Top Roofing.

We recently inspected a roof in Plano for home buyer in the option period. The home inspector mentioned in his report that the roof "should be further evaluated by a roofing contractor."

We recorded our inspection for you to be able to view how an inspection is done, and the value this service could be for you who may be listing your home, or when you are buying a new property.

You can see from the photos what wind can do to your shingles. The edges get lifted, the nail pulls through the shingle, and the stress pulls the next shingle, etc., etc., etc. all the way up the roof. The repair on this roof was done by another roofer prior to our inspection.

Another type of damage from wind occurs with the tabs flipping up and eventually breaking off. We don't recommend a 3-tab shingle for this reason. It is only warranted against wind gusts up to 60 mph.

The laminated shingle has a wind rating of 110. Dallas regularly gets 40-50 mph winds in the spring and fall.

What does wind typically do to damage a roof. One type of damage is uplift. This is when the end of the shingle gets pulled up and the nail holding the end pulls through the shingle. If the wind is bad enough this can occur in rows up and down the roof, or in sections or groups of shingles. This has the potential for "blow offs" and subsequent leaks.
