AsphaltShingleRoof Solutions offers roof inspection services across Oklahoma, including the Tulsa metropolitan area. The state's notorious for severe weather, including frequent and intense thunderstorms, hailstorms, and tornadoes. Our inspections are specifically designed to address these extreme conditions.
Oklahoma's climate is characterized by extreme weather events, making roof inspections critical. The state is in "Tornado Alley" and experiences frequent severe thunderstorms that often include large hail and damaging winds. These events can cause immediate and significant damage to shingle roofs, leading to leaks and material degradation. Winter can bring ice and occasional snow, but the primary concern is typically storm damage. Our inspections focus on identifying vulnerabilities from hail impacts, wind uplift, and water intrusion common in Tulsa.
Our inspectors conduct a thorough examination of your roof. This includes checking for hail damage, wind uplift on shingles, granule loss, and the integrity of flashing around vents and chimneys. We also inspect the attic for signs of water intrusion, which is common after storms.
It is recommended to have your roof inspected annually, and especially after any significant hailstorm or severe thunderstorm. In Oklahoma, the spring and fall are key seasons for inspections, as they follow periods of intense storm activity.
We recommend a professional roof inspection at least once a year. Given Oklahoma's high frequency of severe weather, it is advisable to have your roof checked after any major storm. Proactive inspections in Tulsa can prevent minor damage from becoming catastrophic.
Look for dents or circular patterns on shingles from hail, cracked or missing shingles, granule buildup in gutters, and water stains on interior ceilings. In Oklahoma, damage from high winds or hail is a critical indicator that an inspection is needed.
No preparation is needed from your end. Our trained professionals are equipped to safely conduct a thorough inspection of your roof. We will access the roof directly to perform the assessment, ensuring all areas are covered.
Following the inspection, we will provide a detailed report outlining our findings and any recommended actions. We will discuss the condition of your roof, explain any identified issues, and present the most effective solutions to maintain its integrity and protect your home from severe weather.
