it a prime target for high winds and severe weather. Roofer911 recommends that you prepare your home for severe weather in advance, long before weather conditions become a problem. While no roofing system can prevent damage from a direct tornado hit, using these tips for protecting your home from storm damage can help it to prevail when rough weather conditions are on the move in your area.


• Perform Annual Inspections - By preventing roof repairs before they become a problem during high winds and wet weather, you can ensure your roofing system will stay intact during the worst of weather. Annual inspections should be performed on the roofing system, gutters, soffit, fascia and siding to ensure that your home is ready to withstand whatever Mother Nature can throw at it.


• Ventilate the Attic Space- It’s a proven fact that when a tornado strikes a home, it lowers the surrounding air pressure, causing the air inside the home to escape by any means necessary. This can cause roofing systems to fail catastrophically during a tornado. By properly ventilating the attic space, you can better prevent roof damages to your home during a tornado. Roofer911 can install an attic ventilation system in your existing home easily and affordably to prevent pressure differences from causing your roofing system to fail during severe winds.


• Tie Downs and Strapping- Your homes floors, walls and framing members need to be secured to each other using more than just nails and screws. Metal strapping is used to tie down walls, joists and trusses to prevent damaging uplift caused by high winds. Be sure your homes metal strapping is in place by checking your attic, basements and crawlspaces for metal tie downs. Without the right strapping in place, your home could be susceptible to damage from high winds.


• Check Insurance Documents- Be sure your homeowners insurance is up to date and covers damages from high winds and tornados. When storm damages take place, it’s good to know that your roof repair is taken care of. Roofer911 ensures your peace of mind by connecting directly with your claims adjuster and insurance agent to make sure the entire process of repairing your roofing or siding damage is as worry free for the homeowner as possible.

With close to 40 years of roofing experience and a long list of past satisfied customers, you can be sure your home is going to be in good hands whether you are repairing or preparing your home for severe weather conditions.

Roofer911 quickly respond to our call. We called with a concern of possible chronic, slow leak. Roofer911 was willing to come on a rainy day and look at the situation even though we were not 100% sure that the leak is still present. It turns out that Roofer911 found several problems that two previous roofers did not detect. The issue was fixed on the same day, and there has been no problem since. Roofer911 also gave great assurance with 1-yr warranty.
