A damaged roof isn’t just about a few missing shingles—it’s a ticking time bomb that can lead to widespread issues throughout your home. The longer you wait, the worse the damage gets, turning what could be a simple repair into an expensive, avoidable disaster. Here’s why immediate action is crucial:
Water Damage
Storm damage weakens your roof’s protective barrier, allowing water to seep inside. Even a tiny leak can cause widespread damage, affecting your ceilings, walls, and even electrical systems.
Mold Growth
Moisture trapped under damaged shingles creates the perfect environment for mold and mildew. Once it spreads, it becomes difficult and costly to remove, posing serious health risks.
Structural Weakness
A compromised roof doesn’t just affect the surface—it puts your entire home at risk. When water infiltrates roofing materials, it weakens essential components like roof decking, insulation, and drywall.
Higher Repair Costs – The Longer You Wait, The More You Pay
What starts as a minor issue can quickly escalate into a full-blown roofing emergency. The longer storm damage goes unaddressed, the costlier the repairs become.
Missing or Damaged Shingles
Strong winds and storms can tear off or crack shingles, exposing the roof's underlayment to water and increasing the risk of structural damage.
Granule Loss on Shingles
Hail and heavy rain can dislodge protective granules on asphalt shingles, accelerating aging and increasing leak risk.
Water Stains or Leaks Inside Your Home
Leaks often first show as stains, bubbling paint, or musty smells, leading to mold and wood damage if not addressed.
Dented or Cracked Roofing Materials
Hail and debris can cause cracks and dents on your roof, weakening its structure. A professional inspection is necessary to identify hidden damage.
Sagging Roof or Structural Changes
Storms can damage roof supports, causing sagging or uneven areas, which may indicate moisture buildup or rotting wood.
Damaged Roof Flashing or Chimney Areas
Cracked or bent flashing around chimneys, vents, or walls can allow water to seep in, causing hidden leaks.
Clogged or Overflowing Gutters
Debris can block gutters, preventing proper drainage and allowing water to leak under shingles.
Higher Energy Bills
A damaged roof can affect insulation, making your home less energy-efficient.

Bold North Roofing offers the top shingle brands in the market including GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning, and Malarkey. We are a GAF Master Elite Contractor which is only awarded to the top 2% of contractors in North America.
This designation allows us to offer the Golden Pledge warranty which warranties homeowners roofs for 50 years on materials and labor. This GAF warranty covers our labor even if Bold North Roofing is not around in 50 years to fix any problems (which we will be, don’t worry), so you can rest assured that you are completely protected with our roofs.
While we do not file claims on behalf of our clients, we help the homeowner make the determination whether they have enough damage to their roof to make an insurance claim successful and be approved by the homeowner’s insurance agent.
Once the claim is initiated, we will meet the insurance adjuster at the property and show them exactly what we are seeing for damage in order to improve our chances of having the claim approved.
After that point, we will continue to work with insurance as they provide their claim paperwork to make sure that everything that is needed to make the repair or replacement is being covered by insurance so that the only cost to the insured is their deductible.
Our team of professional roofing contractors can assess the condition of your roof and determine if a repair or replacement is necessary. If your roof is less than 15 years old and has minor damage, a repair may be sufficient.
However, if your roof is over 20 years old or has extensive damage, a replacement may be necessary.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover damage caused by severe weather conditions, such as hail, wind, or fire. However, it’s important to review your policy and speak with your insurance provider to understand what’s covered and what’s not. Our team can help point you in the right direction, just give us a call.
